How was your fitness level going into this race?

Pretty good......lots of top end but slacking a bit on endurance.

Were you happy with your position going into the singletrack?

No, I was back a bit and had to work in order to get up front.

Were you strong from start to finish?

Yes

When did you put the hammer down?

Last lap trying to get away from Jason Moore.

Did you have any unusual problems?

I had a flat the first lap. Other than that I was very pleased with my ride.

Were you happy with the way the race was run?

Yeah.

Did you have any interesting experiences during your race (exchanges with competitors/spectators)?

Went elbow to elbow fast into a turn with the Orange bullet again. That's always' interesting.

Anything you would like to add?

The course was awesome.......plenty of single track. Also, the 2.3 Continentals I ran worked extremely well on the fast course. I couldn't believe how they stuck to the ground so well.
