March 30, 2010

I felt pretty good this past weekend at the opening round of the USA Cycling Pro XCT, in Fontana-CA.

It was some pretty exciting racing overall, and the wind on Saturday sure made things tough! Big congrats to Todd Wells of Specialized winning the XC race with a smart move in the last km or so. Other then my right hand man Sid and myself, Todd is a guy I was pumped to see win. Too bad our team didn't get the win in the XC with 2 guys in the lead group of 4, but in a way, the outcome was positive as we learned from it. I was happy with my 3rd place finish a couple seconds behind Todd. I am for sure up a notch from years past so it's satisfying personally to see the progression.

In the short track Sunday, we re-established that we are in fact the strongest team out there. Sid got a gap early on with another rider and I after a 2nd row start, was happy to cover attacks in the chase group and came in 3rd again with Sid easily taking the win, Awesome!

I'm in Santa Rosa for a week for some quality rest, and great training with some of my Nor-cal buddies. Looking forward to some good wine and food too.

I'll check in before making the trip down to Guatemala next week for the Pan Am Champs.

Ride on,

Plax
