What a race. This past Saturday our homie and fellow TOLA! blogger Juan threw a race. Due to the luck of roll of the dice, myself and Hern only had about 35 mile route. (I'm guessing that) While others (Greggityboop) had upwards of 48-50 mile routes. It was brutal, you were alone most of the time, only seeing fellow racers leaving checkpoints or coming in after you're heading back out. To be honest, I want more checkpoint races to be like this. Luck of roll, and also a true test of street knowledge. Do you know the best routes in your city? A race like this will test you, and have you second guessing yourself. I won overall (got the Chrome jersey!!!) and Lil Hern got 2nd overall. (1st roadie) Thanks to Juan for such a rad race and nice choice of checkpoints. Thanks to all those who raced, see you at the next one! Thanks to all the Sponsors! Chrome, the Jersey is sick.....
