A
local home grown CX race: Dave’s race!
“Turns out that helping out
setting up and preparing the course didn't exactly help. First CCX or, race of
this type ever it was one tough cookie. I crashed not out but if common sense
had been the order I would of quit then and there. Broken helmet, face dinged a
bit, neck and shoulders really in the hurt locker. That said I did not finish
last and lapped two riders. For those who don't me I don't ride MTB well and
when I do it normally means a short trip to the ground; hard. Ok enough of
that, the course was a mile long with three fairly long straights two asphalt
and one dirt grass and bumps. One twisty turny section in amongst a stand of
eucalyptus trees and one humgous jump down hill with a dismount to climb a dirt
cliff. I turned each pre-crash lap at 4:00 min. Very low turn out of only 15
people couple from Davis and two from Marin. In my judgment while this is a low
key event without much advertisement it has potential and all told a good
albeit painful experience it's do over next week and hopefully Cal-Aggie as
well. Thanks Vinnie and and Brandy for the opportunity.”
