First night of track

Yea! The first night of track!

It has been so rainy that I haven't spent much time at the track yet - just one training session. So I didn't have my track legs yet.

I tried a 82" gear in the first race. I did not have the leg speed to spin in and got gaped at the first surge. Then I switched to the 88" and felt much better in the miss-and-out. I tried to ride from the outside and commit to my position before the last turn. It was working pretty good but I got tired. The last race was the points - I raced more conservatively but had to bridge a few gaps. I did feel some good speed in bridging. It was all fun again.
