Labor Day Omnium Day 2 – Anderson Criterium
Quick summary – same fast course as last year with flat start/finish, downhill into turn 1, uphill into turn 2, downhill through the back straight with steepest hill into turn 3, followed by the narrow road down into turn 4. I ended up 18th after breaking a spoke on the last lap. The details –…

River Gorge Day 1 – Time Trial and Criterium
River Gorge Omnium Day 1 went pretty well. I really like the new format with the time trial first on Saturday morning followed by the crit late in the evening. The primary benefit is that everybody is fresh for the time trial and yet the short effort isn’t going to really drain you for any…

Day 1 – Crossroads Classic – Concord Criterium
Race Summary This race was a new first for me … at just over 0.3 miles long, this is the shortest criterium course I have ever done. Despite the short distance, the course was safe with wide corners that you could carry your speed through. Turn 4 was the sharpest and most awkward corner that…

Social Circle Time Trial and Covington Criterium (Day 4 – Georgia Cycling Gran Prix)
Power graph for the AM time trial. I think I need to steady up my effort a bit. Having ridden a few races now with my powertap wheels, a rough estimate of my LT (threshold) power is right around 300 watts, I thought I would aim for an average power for this short 10k effort…

Gwinnett Center Criterium (Day 2 – Georgia Cycling Gran Prix)
Quick summary – my teammate Justin Bynum won the Cat 3 race from a four-man break. He looked strong all race! My race was cancelled due to a thunderstorm with nearly constant lightning. Also, I’ve posted pictures below from Justin’s race and from yesterday’s Road Atlanta race.

Downer Ave Criterium – Tour of America’s Dairyland – Day 10
I think I may have cracked the top 15 on this one. I was really happy with the finish as it was a complete turnaround from yesterday. Even though I was again at the very front with one lap to go. I was able to hold my position and not get passed by anyone in…
