I'm not in bad shape, but as evident form this past cherokee race, my "biking" shape isn't on par with my other abilities
ha ha what class did you jump in? from one of your last posts i read, you seemed to be going straight to the expert class. http://www.bikeclicks.com/Community/KyMBA/tabid/1946/forumid/148/postid/12976/view/topic/Default.aspx Those experts are fast fast folks and can sustain that effort for a long time. Hope you stick with the racing. Its actually tons of fun as i'm sure you saw. its like a huge group ride for the most part. lots of people just hanging out with the same interests.
I did beginner. I was going to do sport, but my bike isnt in the best of shape. The "expert" comment was more of a joke (I know I'm not like that lol) in response to the doping comment. I think I did alright, I took a spill and my chain fell off 3 times (if anyone has a middle chainring for the front with a 5 bolt pattern I'd appreciate it :D) and finished in 1:10. Pretty slow compared to what I did the track in a few days ago. I did have a lot of fun, but I hate hate hate going up those freaking hills. Jumping / riding off of some giant things is more of my thing.
