Alpenrose Thursday Series 6/15/6

When a team goes 2-3 in a race, you’d think, “good result”, right? Like, “2nd place is good… and 3rd place is pretty good, too… and we got both! Yippee!”

NO!

Especially in a 3-mass-start-event omnium at the track with plenty of time to strategize before each race, against a guy without any teammates, this is actually somewhat shameful. Granted, not as shameful as going second-to-last/last as a team, but when somebody finishes 1st in front of a 2-3, it couldn’t have been a close race. The teammates must’ve agreed that 1st place was simply out of reach… or they messed up. That’s where I come in. I messed up. Luckily, it was a pretty low-profile race in the middle of a busy month and nobody really cares. And Molly and I still respectively won $20 and $10. Yippee!
