San Dimas Recap

Kat and I chillin during our morning spin


The Rocktape Team- Coryn, Kat, Olivia, Alisha. This was Coryn's bright idea of what to do with the scraps of leftover rocktape.

I am number 910



Alisha says: The road race went well for the team, it was 8 laps of a 7 mile loop. It was a more technical course for me and had a little bit of everything in it. The Peanut Butter Gang was all over the front controlling the race. A break of four finished just in front of the field and after following Olivia up to the front right before the finish I was in the right place at the right time and finished 6th. Most importantly, Mara retained the overall lead.


The criterium was fast and furious. There were a lot of pro teams that were anxious for a big move. A very dangerous group got off the front including Ina Tetenburg. She is so fast that she escaped from the other girls in the break, won a bunch of time bonuses, and gained enough time to take the overall GC spot. It was one of those days when I wished that I had mad crit skills so I could drive it on the front like Kat, Olivia, Coryn, and Ruth (who turned themselves inside out for the team). In the end, Mara was second and I dropped to 7th after the break pulled enough time to jump ahead of me.
