Just brutal...I was not prepared for how tough the first dirt section would be with the cross wind. I was trying to stay out of the wind on the right and got pushed off into the grass (by a big gust of wind) and gapped shortly after hitting the dirt. Spent the rest of the race trying to close the gap to the leaders(never happened), but did work well with some of the WSC and TCC guys to stay competitive and pick off guys that bonked. As I told my fellow chasers...it is a race of attrition as much as anything else; be patient. Sure enough, we moved up about 4 positions on the next lap. I did 3/4 of the last lap alone, and managed to pick off 2 riders and finish a respectable 7th. Not bad considering the guys in front were 10-20yrs my junior. Note to self...different water bottle cages next time. Lost a bottle on first lap and really suffered on the last lap.
