Berkeley Hills Road Race

At Berkeley Hills Road Race the 13-14s were put in the 15-16s pack. As 13-14s  we only raced one lap while the 15-16s raced 2. On the second bear the older kids went hard. I stay with them until near the top. I got into a chase group of around 6 riders. three on them were 13-14s. I knew from past experience that the final climb was very long. At the bottom of the climb one of the kids attacked. I kept a steady pace while the other kid attacked also. Now the two of them were up the road but one of them was fading. I caught him and the other one. then I went a few mph faster and got a gap. I caught Daniel's group of 15-16s near the finish and won out of my age group.
