The course at Carpentersville was rough - literally. It kind of felt like riding cobbles. But the weather was great (50's and partly sunny), so the race fun. (We all know 'cross weather will be here soon enough, so I welcome as many warm, sunny races as possible.) The course featured a waterless creek crossing, a 180 through a sand pit, and lots of turns.
Alex started off the day fighting off the big dogs for 45 minutes in the Masters 30+ race. His time on the course early in the day no doubt helped all of us with race tips. In the 4A's Chris, Chris and Mike all scored points! In the 4B's, Austin took a podium spot in 3rd!!! I was at the back end of the lead group with the B's in 6th place, and we were all clocked finishing around 2 minutes faster than the A's group! (And this was a short race, ~25 minutes.)
After all is said and done, out of 75 point-scoring teams, RVBR ranks tied at 11th! Pretty phenomenal for a new team with a bunch of new riders!
