Miamisburg is a cool little town and the course was pretty awesome. Really smooth except for one short section of brick. It wasn't too technical and luckily only one crash (that I know of). I guess the two guys on a break pulled off a stupid move and just ran into each other.
We were running a little late so my warm up consisted of riding up and down a street for about 15 minutes. It turned out it was plenty though.
The first few laps were pretty fast but soon it started to slow down. Guys would try to get away but it always came back. Coming into crunch time, things did start to pick up again.
Coming into the last lap, Greg Flecher and I got a gap going. I figured we can have a go at it and see if the two of us can make it to the end. It was pretty much a suicide move and we held off until the last corner. I got absorbed back into the pack and tried to rest for a few seconds before I had to sprint to save positions after I pretty much blew myself up. I ended up 16th. Not too bad and definitely better than going straight out the back. If Greg and I had one more person with us, we possibly could have stayed away.
