skinnyski.com captures the action
Yes, I realize it was nearly two weeks ago, but I might as well throw out a couple lines to reminisce about the River Falls WORS vs. MNSCS race. It was really fast from the start, probably one of the most intense starts of the year with the hill climb there serving up plenty of lactic euphoria. It didn’t take long for a lead group of five to establish on the first lap. Marko, Jesse, Brendan, Mikey, and Myself all exchanged turns at the front but the speed and tightness of the course meant that getting away from the bunch was more of a challenge. Patience worked out well and on the last lap I was able to let loose up the climb with only Marko in tow. Exchanging the lead in and out of singletrack he drew the right card and led into the final stretches of singletrack. It was close and we were both riding fast, but he got the best of the finish line. I was pumped to have raced a good battle even though a close second place never sits too well. Looking forward to more racing soon to come. And plenty of it!
