The first one usually sucks

So last weekend was the first race weekend of the season for me. A collegiate race in Columbus, Oh. The weather was supposed to be decent and 50 degrees. However it ended up being under 15 and windy. Alvin and i went out and rode for about 2 hrs before the race to get some extra miles in and get warmed up. It didn't work. It was so damn cold, i couldn't stay warm. The races started pretty quick, i got myself to the front in the first lap of the race. Alvin and Dave weren't as lucky. They got stuck behind a bunch of guys who had no business being in the A field and had to close a bunch of gaps and got gassed early on. There was only about 30 people left after 20min. I attacked a few times and crossed to some breaks but i really didn't have any snap at all. I thought i pulled my quad at one point and it scared me a little, i didn't want to push it on the first race so i sat up and pulled out of the race. It was so cold i was numb all the way down my legs. They canceled the next day due to ice storm. This weekend is supposed to be at Depauw in Indiana, but the forecast is for 30 and snow, so that will probably be a bust. It's ok, there is plenty of racing ahead.
