Another screaming hot day in Ohio. Luckily I got plenty of sleep the night before. I drank a gallon of water on the way to the race and a few bottles during warm up. It was terribly fast from the start. There were a few guys who tried a move off the front and I chased them down. I sat second and third wheel most of the first couple laps. I was told to take a pull, but promptly replied that I did not have a teammate. He was pissed. I sat there until 2 to go where I tried to sneak around, thankfully Farmer was there to call my move. I got off the front, but as the field passed lapped riders there was a small pile up and the neutrailized the field. I sat up. Once we rolled across the start finish they announced there was 1 lap to go. . . an all out drag race. For some stupid read I pulled the entire lap. I took off out of the last corner, but couldn't hold my sprint. Came across in 8th. Super stoked. Great race, great course, awesome time. Still, there's this team that takes it way to seriously. . . you know em?
