Challenge RR Report

Here's a quick one from Bo, demonstrating that if one hangs in there, success is possible!

--------------------------------------
Challenge Road Race
Challenge, CA
8/30/2008
Weather: Sunny, HOT!
Teammates: None
Finish: 8th of 12

The race was shortened to 66 miles from 99 at the start line. I got shelled off at mile 15 with one other dude. The other dude quit. Two riders got DQed for taking a wrong road. One other rider quit after I was dropped.

So if the two riders did not quit and two riders did not get lost I would have been 12th of 12, not a good race for me.

After I got dropped I rode at a nice easy pace and enjoyed the scenery.

At least I got some BAT points in the end.

Thanks for reading, Bo
