Burlington Iowa Road Race

My memorial day weekend racing in IA started and finished in Burlington. This year i only felt like doing the road race on friday afternoon, and because i had to get some more stuff in platteville.
Any ways the race went good, it was a hell of alot faster then last year but mostly because the 3's weren't with us, so the field size was smaller but alot faster.
I didn't get into any breaks or anything really exciting just that i did bridge up to a couple of breaks but they were brought back with in minutes. We averaged 27mph and did 80 miles in about 3 hours. A break did stick with about 10-15 miles from the finish but there was no organization to bring it back, i did go to the front and gave it my all but it didn't do much. The field sprint was crazy and unorganized but safe with no crashes.
So the weekend has been going good. Me and JLS went out for a 4.5 hour ride yesterday and i am hoping to get Maggie on the MTB this afternoon when she gets home from work.
Other than that no road racing next week but i am doing a WORS race in Wausau, so that should be fun.
