Matt Wilpers and I returned to Central Park Sunday for race 4 of the NYC Spring Series. Windy and cold, the pace was still fast at 23 + mph with Matt leading most of the time. A crazy finish with sprints starting way early, I tried to jump from wheel to wheel and work my way to the front. By the time I was ready to sprint, the leader was way up the road and fading. I almost caught him but he dug pretty deep to win by a wheel. I was 2nd, Matt finished with the pack after controlling the pace and covering any breaks for 3 laps.
John Milone won his age group (35-39) in the "Prospect Park Spring Du" duathlon. Way to go John!
Check the calendar below for all races and training rides. Let me know if you want to "lead" a regular group ride.

Just a heads up, as I am currently not available to make Tuesday morning workouts, starting tomorrow I am going to do the workout on Monday mornings instead (5:30am) if anyone is interested. Typically the meeting spot has been Tavern on the Green but of course as I am coming from Long Island City (Queens), I am always open for other ideas as well.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, please come out if you can make it or pass on the word as it always more fun to have company. My cell is 678-591-8213, please text me if you plan on coming.
Thanks,
Matt
P.S. Cheers to Greg for having a solid finish this morning in the Spring Series at Central Park coming in second place. Although I was in the back sucking wind, I was sprinting with him in spirit ;)
