upgrade
I mailed in my ACA renewal application Monday, and Yvonne emailed me back with a "Based on your performance last year, you were moved to the 2's in CX." Cool, an upgrade that removes any decisions I might have needed to make, race 3s or 35+. So now I get to leave Summit earlier in the morning, race at 11:30 instead of 1:20, and probably can get back up to Breck by 4 or 5 easily. First real test on Saturday at the CU Research park, dirt crit style. Start will be key on that tight course, but getting the holeshot won't be in my mind, esp. since I will show respect and prob start 2nd or 3rd row. Ideally, with a few races under my belt, I can earn some respect and start near the front again. Should be cool chasing Tim.
