"That's racing" is all I could say after breaking a chain that was not repairable while in 5th place at the Colorado State Championship Race in Snowmass Village, Co
. I must have tweaked it while shifting the front deraileur is all I could figure. The high light was that Lance Armstrong was there and won the pro class by 3 minutes. There were so many spectators who you could tell have never been to a bike race but heard LANCE was there! He was doing some last minute racing before he competes in the Leadville 100 MTB race this weekend. I hear he has enlisted Travis Brown and Matt Shriver (Fort Lewis Collegiate Cycling Coach and Pro MTB) to help pace him during the race. Anyway my wife and I had a great time going to Aspen for dinner and just walking around. Tonite was a club ride in Durango so I vowed to work myself and all others since I didn't get to complete my race..I succeded and went off the front for a long while..by the end of the ride the last hill was not real popular with my quads..I sat down and spun home easily!!
