7.30.05 The Road Race. Probably my best race of the year. A hundred miles flew by, and I climbed the final climb in the group containing the race leader's jersey and the sprint competition jersey. Friends in the race noticed and were congratulating me on my ride. Granted there was a huge, well represented break about two minutes up the road, which more or less neutralized the rest of the field. After the first two days of this race I was deeply satisfied finishing with my peers. feat. The Mercury Program
