Tour de Christiana by Nancy

I was a bit destroyed before the Tour de C began (but managed not to crash). 4 big overnights at work in the week leading up the the event pretty much ensured failure for me. The weekend was well worth it, though, because I was a good rabbit for Maria and she did really well. I had finally had had about enough in lap 4 or 5 of the crit and quit. Then along came Maria and I wasn't about to let her off the hook! Do as I say not as I do... I tried to but couldn't hook her back on to the chase group at that point, but she braved it out with a couple of the girls who got dropped and finished FIRST in the cat 4's. She can TT just fine on her own and if it weren't for the all too pleasant scenery she probably would have won that too.
