Baldwin City Road Race

Baldwin is a 72 mile road race with rolling terrain and a nice long hill at the finish.

Nice result this weekend, the 3/4 race was a true team effort, wouldn't have gotten the placing without the team effort of blocking and following attacks.
I got off the front with jason fife (KCOI) and we worked for about a lap and a half until the pack caught us. A few miles later an SKC redheaded ponytail guy took off on a solo break, an unattached guy jumped a few miles later and Gary O stuck to his wheel and worked with him to catch the red ponytail skc guy. Curt Shelman from Chamos Butter Team dropped the hammer and tried to real them in with me on his wheel, after his pull i sat behind him and discouraged him from working anymore, then another Chamos Butt'r guy took off to bridge and i got his wheel, he got tired of pulling me along and just as the pack caught us another Chamos guy took off with no one covering his wheel and ended up bridging up to the lead group. With the big teams in the group SKC, Chamos, and Oz kinda noodled on the front and got the break a nice gap. Bob got tired of chill'n in the pack and started attacking the pack into the headwind section, which wasn't to hard to hang on to, then the lone mesa guy did some attacks on the cross wind section and guttered the field. I got caught at the back of the pack in the gutter with kent, Jason Fife (KCOI) an SKC guy, and a velotek guy and we popped off the group.
In the end Gary O stayed away with his break companions and finished 3rd. Great Job in the break Gary. Bob Finished 9th ish with the pack. Kent sucker punched me and faked a cramp only to blast past me on the climb for 12th and i got lucky 13.
