Sunday was the Ga. Single Speed mountain bike State Championship race. As most of you know, I love riding my SS MTB. Usually, anyway. This course just outside of Athens Ga. was BRUTAL! The climbs were long and steep and so were the downhills. I blew up completely midway through the first lap and went into survival mode for a while. I ended up 27 out of 40 or so finishers in the sport class. There were no age groups so I take some consolation in the fact that I was racing against all those young punks! Oh well, this wasn't a high priority race and it was still a blast.
The next race is April 2 in Macon. I'll have gears this time and I'll only have the other old guys to contend with. It should be much fun!
