Report:
I rode out to eastern creek dragway with Pia on Sunday. It was the first time she'd ever seen my race. I spent almost the entire race on the back of the bunch. For the first 60mins I told myself I could pull out of this at any time because I was sick with a cold. For the next 20 mins I told myself it was really ok to pull up because I was sick, but then I thought Pia was there watching me and I should at least pretend to be manly and hang on for another 10 mins and try to finish. I followed Craig's wheel towards the end of the race. There a few hairy moments with guys running into each other on the last lap, screeches of carbon brake pads, and one guy rolled a tubby on the final corner which left a smell of burnt rubber (ironically suitable considering we were racing on a dragway!). On the final lap, the bunch was strung out like a pelican turd. I managed to move up towards the front but was a long way behind the winners.

Similar experience to Adrian. Rolled around near the back without ever looking like playing a part at the finish.
My first crit for more than 12 months, so happy enough to stay upright and not get dropped.

If I'd known all the results were to be posted, I would have tried to pass a few in the straight.
I'm not doing the Newcastle leg Adrian.
