Crushin' Carnation

Amara and I had an excellent race this morning. During the intermediate sprint she lead me out for the points and then I tried to return the favor in the last 300m. It ended up being enough to out sprint Mindy and Amara got the field sprint. Unfortunately Lisa Dunnwald had a break away from the pack with three laps to go and time trialed to win the race. I'm still working on figuring out how to win the intermediate sprint and the win - I think I need to rest a little more between efforts. One thing I keep forgetting is to refuel on the bike. Luckily Amara told me to eat to recharge shortly after the int. sprint. It did wonders for my energy level again.

We are working really well together - it rules. I have a feeling she and I are going to be an unstoppable force in the peloton. Excellent.
