Haymarket Winter Bike League #2. Mostly pavement but rode my CX since that's what I've got. Bit of a disadvantage and couldn't hang with the front group of guys. Settled in with a couple folks...basically zero draft the first 35mi. Then hopped in a Haymarket line and shared the workload the last 10. Lots of new to me roads since there was so much pavement.

KISS Crit NA #5. Did this at the shop for a smart trainer promo for TBL. Feeling strong all night, covering the small attacks in the volcano up the banner each lap. Made a half-hearted attack after lap3 and no one came with me, so I settled back into the lead 15 woman pack. Got 3 aero powerups and for the most part used them each lap. I got one going into lap 6 and saved it for the finish. Pace picked up for the last K, and Ellen led out (too) early. I waited, timing my sprint a bit better. Blew by 3or 4 just before the line to finish more than a bike length ahead. New max HR for me...max watts 647 on the sprint. In real contention to qualify for the finale at this point.

The Shed delish techy ladies’ ride with Jen and Kathleen. Just some gals shredding rocks. All. Day. Long. Love the east coast. Skills are getting better and better.
