Sugarhouse Crit

We had good numbers for the 4, 5 and 35+b race.
Weather was perfect and the fields were big.

The cat 5 race was fast, but stayed together to the finishing sprint.
although Luper is getting smarter, he made a mistake and led out the Spin rider that came around him and took him at the line.
Still a great 2nd place finish and enough for his upgrade. Judd came in 4th place, just back of the winner.The cat 4 race and the 35+b races were fast and we sat back until halfway into the race to do anything.
DC and the Robot attacked with 5 laps to go in the 4 race but only stayed off for a lap since the group was driving it so hard. With a lap to go, a canyon rider attacked and soloed to the victory as we all sat and watched him ride away. It had been so fast up to this point, no one thought he would stay away but everyone soft pedaled and watched him. Seth sprinted it out and took 4th in the 4's.
The 35+b race was similar but we all already had a race in our legs. Sit back and wait until late in the race. You would think that we would have learned from the 4 race, but we sat and watched a guy attack with 1/2 a lap to go and win as seth again sprinted it out for 4th.
We attacked but couldn't get anything to stick.
