Evanston Crit

Horse Flies

I have never stopped riding because of to many horse flies or any bugs for that matter but today was a first.  Riding at Grand Geneva I felt like I was in a horror film and has huge swarms flying behind me at all times.  When I slowed down they were all over my back.  I wanted to do three easy to medium effort but with the bugs, I did one at race pace and called it quits.  After a shower I counted 25 bits on my back.

Getting ready for my first Crit of the year, a Super Week Race, not a great idea but I am going to Evanston tomorrow morning for their Crit.  It is a great setup so I hope I can hang for the entire race.
