1st place first race Go Nuts series (Georgia) on my CSMB01

I posted this in the 29er topic since that's what I ride.  It would be nice to have a 'ride chat' or discussion topic for everyone to discuss rides and events on their bikes.

Anyway, So I decided to give it a whirl this year and see what this racing thing is all about.  Can't believe I actually won my age bracket!  On the second lap I punctured my front tire and it leaked down to about 6 lbs, but I rode that badboy anyway, LOL!  Sketchy and it cost me about 2 minutes but I still managed to pull it off. 

What I really found out though is that I out-classed my competition in bike handling and descents.  2 of the guys were definitely strong riders and would probably out climb me on a hill, but most of these climbs had granite step ups and the course was quite technical. 

Loads of fun and I recommend any of you who have thought about entering a race to go do it.  You meet lots of nice people with common interests too. :-)
