Elena and Ashley at Bethel March 9, 2008

Elena had another strong finish at Bethel.

It was really cold with heavy winds in Bethel this morning. About 15-20 womenshowed up. Ashley and I represented Radical. Anne Marie Miller , two Kenda girls, and Kathleen Billington were there as well.
On about the 3rd lap, Ashley, AMM, and a Kenda sailed up the hill and opened up a small gap. I sat on the front for a couple of seconds to see if Ashley was going to be able to get away. The other Kenda rider and Kathleen bridged up and I went with them. With the 30 mph winds up there in Bethel, it was tough to stay out of the wind. At some point, Ashley must have been caught in the wind because all of a sudden I didn’t see her anymore.

The 5 of us started working together and we were able to lap the rest of the field. AMM was really drilling it and she took the sprint (again), with Andrea (Kenda) second, Rebecca (Kenda) third, me fourth, and Kathleen (fifth). All in all, a good clean race for all.
