Another Tough Day at the Runway

So, Sunday was pretty exciting. The team got their brand new kits, which look awesome. The whole team was their and raging early on. We have been talking about picking up a new rider from the UK. His name is Muerig, he's a super nice guy and a real tough guy on the bike. I guess rode pretty well in the chase group last weekend and this week ended up making the break with me.
So anyways on with the race day. We got our new kits and rode from Tom's house down to the race in Ann Arbor. The plan was to have Rob, Jim, Tom and Alvin cover some early moves and keep Brian and I protected. Brian is doing well in the Overall and we we're trying to get him the win. Well best laid plans as they say. I ended up attacking for a prime and opened up a huge gap on the field. I spend 2 laps by myself before being caught by a chase group of 3. We starting working together and opened up a small gap in 3 laps. Then for some reason or other we started loosing riders out of the break. First the Priority Health rider disappeared and then a lap later Tucker Olander was gone. So it ended up being Muerig and I for 45 laps by ourselves. We worked pretty well together. Muerig wasn't feeling well due to birthday celebrations the night before but he did enough work to give me a small rest every lap. The closest the field got again was about 12sec. In the last laps we were starting to tire out, but we had about 30seconds still on the field. Muerig led the sprint out and i jumped hard into the last corner and won the race. Another great race and i can't believe I have been able to win another one. I think I need a good pinch, but I don't want to wake up from this dream.
