Race Report, Imperial Classic, Kyle

Today I raced at the Imperial Classic in Imperial california. It's down near the Mexican border. I raced cat 5's and junior 15-16. The cat 5 was a good race, although it was very wet and muddy. I tried to go in a break away with three laps to go, but got chased down immediately. There was one crash which was right behind me, a teammate of mine narrowly avoided it. I ended up rolling in at 24th place.
The juniors race was a lot of fun. With a drier course and less racers than the fives, it was not as sketchy. I was able to stay with the group in the sprint finish, to fourth place, out of ten. I am happy with the result, but I wish I could have made the podium. Oh well.
