Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!

Finally got a win under my belt!! 

Raced Cat 5's at the Proctor Classic in the morning.   Pretty uneventfull race.  Stayed in the pack for the most part.  Popped out for the prime laps.  In the first prime, I had 2 teammates go for it.  I let them get it and made sure nobody else was trying for it.  2nd prime I jumped on a guys wheel who was going for it and sprinted passed him.  2 michelin race lite tubes.   Sweet.

On the last lap I moved up in the headwind on the backstretch that leads into a slight rise before the last turn.  I was second wheel when we pulled on the long finishing straight away and the dude in front of me was spent.  He pulled off and it was time to go, even if it was early, go or get passed.  I hit it full throttle and held everyone off by a few bike lengths for the win!!  

After the race I talked with the head official and he gave me an early upgrade to Cat 4's which meant I was to stay around all day and race again at 5.  Fine by me!!!
