What better way to round out the week then at the CSC crit here in Washington DC. Since we are in Washington DC I figured the president would be there… I mean who would miss an event like this, let alone the president. Anyways, there was a lot of cheering so I am pretty sure he wasn’t there. Now I am not saying he is a bad guy if you like him, I am just saying I think everyone was cheering for the women and men in spandix.

So back to the race where the fastest spandix individual rounding left won. Now I am not sure about you, but I was wishing my bike had a softer seat on it… I mean really the roads. Now I guess it is true… You know how they say the mountain bike races are very technical out in theses parts with all the roots and stuff… well the criteriums course seems to follow suit. They are more technical then many of the western course I have done with the man holes and endless pot holes. Its true you can really see what your bikes made of cause after 50 laps of that, we know we have strong blue bikes… yep

Alright so what really happened in the race… well Catharine (Cheerwine) won, our own LARA (VALUEACT CAPITAL ) was 2nd, and Andrea (Colivita) was 3rd here at the CSC circular race…  

It was a fast race from the start, finishing even faster. Some teams had two individuals, some had four (us), and some had what seemed like a lot more then that. So after only about 15 minutes the break of three went up the road of many holes. After that it was pretty chill, oh but I have to brag for a second cause I think this is the first time this has happened in all 29 years I have been living… I won a preme. Now I am pretty sure I was the only one going for it. 

But if you would like Bontrager Race Lite 700 Clincher Black Wheels Retail Valued at 400.00 for 399.99 + shipping unless you live here or in Philly cause that is the next place we are going or heck even somewhere near the Nature Vally Grand Prix Race, then you get shipping free. I know sweet deal. No, but for real if you do want some wheels for whatever price I am guessing someone out the four of us (Martina, Hannah, Lara, or me… although probably not me) decide let me know…

And Hannah won a pair of oakley five Rtb/Gold Irid sunglasses valued at 80.00 too (see above, other then the 399.99 of course unless you want them for that and we will definitely pay the shipping as long as you live in the US and Canada, maybe Italy cause I will be back to Europe in July or I can even send them back with Phil who will has cleared custumes and is in the US of A as we speak, yeah )

Cool, so we are about to eat dinner and I don’t have any pictures so it is time to go get ready… keys to find, shoes to locate, and I am sure there is something else too.

Cheers for cheering,

:)Chrissy

ps… we did see the George W. Bush Intelligence Center sign, I am wondering if I can get one of those for my house… I mean when I own a house. Chrissy M. Ruiter Intelligence Center next right. I wonder who makes them and how much they cost…
