Last weekend (8/11 & 8/12) I raced Elk Grove. It started with a flat 4.5 mile TT, followed by two crits, equally as flat. I came 5th in the TT, ten seconds down, which for me is pretty good, especially considering the flat course! I think that the last few weeks on the power cranks have definitely helped in that department!
Although I felt good in the crits, and tried to ride away whenever I had an opportunity, it was just too flat and fast to do so. Both crits ended in big bunch sprints, and due to time bonuses, two guys moved past me on GC, so I only ended up 7th overall.
