2012 Dillworth Criterium
The 2012 Dillworth Criterium was my first road race of the year. Dillworth isn’t one of my favorite courses. I find it to be a challenging course with a long, steady climb on the front stretch, plus it’s usually the my first road race of the year so my body isn’t used to the effort required in a criterium.
My race started at 2. I arrived a little early to catch the end of the Cat 4/5 race to see my friend Mike Levine finish up. After that, I rode my bike around for about 20 minutes to get the legs going.
