A few days after I got back from Colorado I drove down to the Encino velodrome to the local qualifier for elite track nationals. I raced the kilo and pursuit, did pretty terrible in comparison to my previous weekend but had a great time. After training at ADT for the past few months I have made a lot of friends at the velodrome, most of whom had shown up to race as well. It was great to see every one to thank them for their support in the past few months as I gutted out my workouts on the track in preparation for nationals. In addition on the schedule was a full olympic omnium which was awesome to watch with plenty of exciting races in the program. Especially awesome was the presence of the current women's omnium world champion Tara Whitten in a proper world champion kit, who put on a clinic on how to dominate an event. It was fun to be partly on the other side of the event and watch my friends have awesome rides instead of having to focus on every detail of my preparation. I can't wait to watch some great racing come October at ADT.
