December?

Is it really December? I can't believe the weather lately. Friday I rode my cross bike at Cadra Ranch and it was beautiful.











Saturday I raced the Stomach Churn down near Arcata. I've raced there the last two years and I remembered that it is a rough course. I took my single speed Niner as well as my cross bike. It was a good move as I ended up riding it. The course was really bumpy. I saw a lot of bikes get their chains bounced off. It was a hard race. Maybe it would've been easier with gears. At one point I realized why it's called Stomach Churn. I felt like hurling. I raced the thirty minute race and at the end of my third lap I waited for the leaders to lap me so I didn't have to do another one.
I think I'm going to race in Humboldt County again next week. That will be my last race of the year.
