This week we'll steal the Cruzbike Chicks' internal race report from their Chat board.
Cruzbikers Chicks Race Report:
Hardy is still recovering from their almost defeat yesterday. Yes, they beat us, but we made them suffer for their victory. He’ll get out his Cruzbike report later. Chicks faced and conquered the challenge of only having 3 racers. The lure of the beautiful outside riding is keeping our racer numbers low. Enjoy ladies. Maybe one day it will rain on a Thursday. We started with 3 eager racers and ended with 3 exhausted racers. No mechanical failures. I had a close call when I accidentally let my Zwift play controls go to sleep. I begged, “please don’t make me pair” as we stormed out the starting gate. Begging worked — this time. I won’t let that happen again.
The plan was for Emily and Connie to do all the pulling and have Janice residing in the “easy chair.” Janice played her part perfectly and took advantage of that lovely draft. Good luck Janice on your training for the next 8 weeks. We can’t wait to get you back faster and stronger. You just might lose your easy chair spot.
Once we revved it up as soon as the gate dropped, It was all systems go. I never saw so much red on my screen! It took us till the final lap to overtake the pesky Sticky Bottles. We passed 4 riders with relative ease. But where was number 5? Rick Mueller, AKA Stickie’s Secret Weapon was 11 seconds ahead of us. That sneaky Rick took off with all the thunder he could muster to stay well ahead of us. We were already dying after finally catching the Stickies. How were we going to get up enough watts to overtake Sneaky Rick? We kicked it in high gear, ignored the screaming muscles, and told our lungs to stop complaining. We’ll be able to breathe again or be dead after we cross the finish line. No matter how hard we pedaled, we couldn’t close that 11 second gap. Well played Stickies! We had to settle for the consolation prize of coming in 6th in Vienna Mocha. Not bad! Get ready to do it again next week - same time, same station.
