Superweek

Went to the Kenosha crit after I did a few laps at the Crystal race. We got there in plenty of time for the kids to warm up for their race. I'm beginning to wonder what they are doing for their warms ups. I'm going to start taking a bike to ensure that they are getting a good warm up before they race. They raced well and were at the front and then a few jumped them and they had to settle for racing for the rest. Gage pulled a 4th, Nate a 6th and Mitch a 7th. In the 15-18 race they missed the break and then again had to settle for the best of the rest. Gage pulled a 5th, Nate 6th and Mitch a 12th. They raced real well and I think have to hit it hard to keep up in the 15-16 next year. They are racing well just need a extra gear in the legs starting next year. Then we watched Len, Dan and John line up for their race. John lasted for 8 miles and then Len lasted for over half the race and then Dan finished in the field. Good thing Dan sat up in the lst turn as a guy up front sprinting hit his bars with his knee and hit the deck taking 5 others with him. A few really were hurt bad and had to be hauled away. Also Dr. Rudy went down in the back stretch and he hit his head hard and went to the hospital. Hope everyone is ok. Then Clayton and Bob lined up for the the pro race. I went fast and only got faster and they both hung on for the entire race. Clayton was up front and finished in the top 20 and Bob finished in the field. A great race to watch and looking forward to the Downer Ave race now. Vince's prime is up to $4,000 and that should make for a fun race. Now I have to get Nate's and my bike ready for the pre ride. Later..
