From our Trackster... Mr JL

Well, let me first assure you all that I did not break my chain! I raced the C's and got first in the overall omnium. Here's how I did: Keirin qualifying - 1stKeirin Final - 1stMiss & Out - 1stScratch race - 1stPoints race - 5th There was a huge wreck in the scratch race that took out 2/3 of the field, and two people were c-spined to the hospital. Two guys touched wheels high up the bank and essentially fell into the middle of the field and everyone went down hard. I didn't take any points in the points race because there were only eight of us left - four women and four men. Two of the women racers were fit enough to keep up and I helped them keep contact with the three guys at the front and that allowed them to score points and make the race a lot of fun. I think that was the point and I enjoyed it the most out of the whole day. I am well on my way to becoming a 3 on the track before June with today's and last year's points. I think I will be racing the B's from now on. JL
