Tampa Training Crit 1-15-2011 with Magnus Backstedt

How cool was it to be able to race with the Paris-Roubiex and a Tour Stage winner?

That's exactly what happened on the crit race on the 15th.

Magnus Backstedt was in town with the U23 team

The A group crit race info per Garmin.

I was riding really strong and on the very last turn right before the sprint on the last lap....I took the outside line (a first for the race)and someone on the inside of me hit their pedal and moved outside into me....I headed right for the curb and hit the turf. A friend said I had the most gracefull crash he has ever seen.

I'm lucky...bike and rider were fine.

Ciao,
Rick
