Hello and preview

Howdy. Thanks for checking this out. Feel free to comment on anything. This is supposed to be fun, right? I'm such a small fry racer that only friends and family will be bothering to read this (if even that), so have at it.
Yesterday was this season's first road race. I've put a bunch of pressure on myself this year by letting myself go unemployed for the last month or so to try to train (and move residences). I upgraded to a more advanced racing category after my last race of last season, so I had to step up my preparation a bit; and had to cope all winter with not knowing what to expect from the competition when the season started. On Sunday I finally broke the ice.
