ToAD #6






Today was a crit in Sheboygan. Got a lucky beautiful day to race as the storm came through last night and left early leaving it race perfect. We got there nice and early to get things ready and then he asks for any Ibuprofen as his hip hurt and I say sorry I don't, but Mike Froh saved us as he had some. So he pops them and then goes and warms up and he just didn't look like he was into it today and was hitting the 5 days of racing tiredness. But Nate was moving from the front to the back of the race often and it had me wondering if he was suffering or just taking it easy. Well he was just taking it easy as he pulled a 2nd place finish today. It was a nice finish but a gap opened up out of the last turn as he hit his pedal hard on the ground causing him to stop pedaling for a few seconds and then it was just finish the best he could and that was 2nd today. Lionel had a awesome race today and took the top spot and that is nice to see the Jr's ruling the cat 4 races. Tomorrow we are heading to Waterloo for another crit. Jess and Maddie are coming home tomorrow as they have been upnorth with my parents so the house will be full again. I better get some wheels ready for tomorrow. Later..
