Race Recap from Matt Addessi

Pretty happy with my longer race effort.  Race conditions were tough with a crossing headwind on the way out and a slight tail wind on the way back.   I was blown all over the road both ways but handled it pretty well.  I came off the aero bars a few times for some extra control in the windier spots but all in all I am pretty happy with my result.   This race was great prep for the State Championships in August as it’s on the same course, so I know where I can burn the matches and put in a better time.

I averaged 25.8 mph over 25 miles with 800’ of elevation change with a finish time of 57:48.

 I have more in me and truly believe I can break 56min.  I can go faster!
