Special Report from Alex 2nd place finisher in 3/4 race:

2008 DCCX - Day started off with a cold brisk morning and a tough race for Pat. Adam and Pat ran a 5k the day before and placed 1st and 3rd respectively. Pat was doing well in 4th or 5th then had a chain issue on one of the last laps and lost alot of time. Bikes and that guy just don't get along lately, but i'm sure his luck will change. Next up was David Tambeaux and Steve Klose both doing well in their races. After that was Adam and I in the 3/4 b race, and we finished 2nd and 3rd respectively. During the race there was a break of 4 front runners including Adam and I. In the middle of the race the 1st guy went down hard going around a turn. The 2nd guy Adam slammed right into him and the downed riders tire blew up and then the winner of the race squeezed by untouched. I then ran into Adam who was all over the trail by this point and lost about 5 seconds on the winner. I was working on catching the leader and doing my best up until I crashed into a lapped rider. My knee hit hard on the back of his bike and I lost another 5 seconds. Over all my race was good until this point but since i've started racing cross i've learned perfection is not something easily found. After finishing I learned Adam had a back tire slow leak. Could not have asked for a better day weather and course wise.
