Square Lake women’s 4 report

So I jumped ship and joined Hollywood. Hahahaha. Sorry, couldn’t resist.

If I was seasoned and placing in my races, I’d worry about it and have
sent out a pre-emptive email. There’s always next year; you never
know, my zipper could break just before the race again ;-) (Yes, my
zipper on my only Gopher jersey broke a few minutes before the race-I
was on my way to get my money back when Kristy with Hollywood let me
borrow hers-what a lifesaver! The women here are so nice and
supportive).

Race recap:

Lovely 4 mile neutral start with a lot of friendly chit-chat; AUC
chick tries to take a flyer off the front and is reeled in; Birchwood
(so, half of the women’s 4 race) start riding tempo to knock off us
weaklings, this fails but does wear me down for the Mountain (I mean
hill); Birchwood does an attack at the top of the hill; you’ll have to
ask Cheryl how the rest of the race went as it was bye-bye Lynne.

However, on a side note, I ran over a couple of wild turkeys crossing
the road and had an early Thanksgiving dinner. Yum. (Just kidding!!!
They were kind of cool though-a huge family of wild turkeys). And
honestly, the back side of the course was lovely (the same canNOT be
said for MY backside as highlighted on Skinnyski). The tunnel was
fun. Trying to catch Kristy (Hollywood) and Jacki (Peace Coffee)
after I fiddled with my GU and looked up to see them in the distance
was not fun. Riding the rest of the race by myself was SO not fun.

I finished. DFL. The end. Have a nice evening. :-D
