Cotton Patch Race report

Quick race report from Spencer Guy

About 20 guys went down in the Cat 4 RR. I had to zig-zag and bunny hop over bikes and legs at 26 mph. I think I rode over someone, too. Amazingly, I got through untouched. At the finish, I sprinted for what I thought was the finish - it wasn't - so I had to hold on for 10th.

Flatted during the TT but was on pace for top 5, if not top 4.

Won the crit field sprint for 2nd - blowing the pack to pieces! I thought I won it all, but a guy from the break took off solo and was 50s up the road.

Even with the RR mistake and TT flat, I ended up 4th for the weekend omnium. Had I sprinted on time and not flatted, it would have been an easy #1 omnium.

Oh well. Live and learn.

Jeff Klein was a top 3 at the Road Race, and his race also had a crazy crash in the final straight.

Stars and Spokes Circuit Race

Nicky finished second in the P-1-2 race with a sprint that shows he is getting back to form, Jeff Klein finished 4th (resplendent in the SMU kit) and we will post some pictures later. Caryn recovered enough from her encounter with the truck (broken scapula etc) to race well enough to solidify her 3rd place in the North Texas Cup series.
