troy classic

what i remember from the troy classic:
a whistle.
clip in.
go. hard.
go harder.
it's hot.
it's fast.
my head's going to explode.
oh man, it's really hot.
wait, there's 5 to go? i thought there were only 4 left.
i think i'm overheating.
wait, there's 4 to go? i thought...you get the picture.
was that chip, telling me to move up? can't he see my lungs sticking out my ears?
okay, bell lap, better move up -- d'oh! 2 to go?
who put the felt in my mouth?
hey look, nick and bret -- hi guys!
i wonder what happens when your core temperature hits 200 degrees?
made it. whew! now, a cooldown lap and water.
oops, didn't see that barrier -- i should probably look up when i ride the cooldown lap.
water.
water.

...the rest is a haze, but i do know i had a great time flying the darkhorse colors at a weekend race for the first time with alex, nick, and bret. thanks, guys!
