First race! Wild experience for first time. Realized I have a lot to learn and develop to become a better racer. First race + first year= tough challenging ride especially with the climbs. Just hoping to keep pace a little longer before getting dropped again!

Weird race. Legs didn't feel great. Almost got dropped a lap in but the lead group slowed. Stopped in middle of race to let ambulance pass. Also raced with the 4's. So tough day all around.

Low front tire and lack of interest ended my day. Another bad venue with narrow roads, large fields, bad referee calls, way to much traffic,crashes, injuries, and somebody hit by a car. Here's an idea run the categories separately to reduce the field sizes and hold the races on safer less travel roads. Also again the finish line was not in a good location. I'm finished with the OSRR series.
