I got a flat at about 2/3rds through the race… i was riding 4-7th? I lost some spots and finished 15th… but my 15th place finish still paid!!! And pretty good too, about the same as a 3rd place finish in the root 66 series! (the series I had been doing for the past 4 years previous while living up in ME and NH).
The payouts in the Mid Atlantic Super series are insane… they go 15- 20 deep!! And the competition doesn’t seem any more competitive than what I am used to for regional races up north…
w/ my normal mediocre finishes 5th-10th I will have no problem making enough cash to pay for my registration and gas money for MASS series races…. so if your looking to have your mtn bike racing hobby pay for it self the mid Atlantic is the place to be (specifically racing the MASS series)
It was a bit cold 45 degrees (warmed up to low 50’s later in the day) Jeff Shalk is in his car staying warm (I carpooled down with him… he won the race!!!)
In other news… check out this wicked big blood blister .
