My second time at the race track--i.e.,
the Seward Park Thursday night cycling series. It was hotter and the pace was faster than
last week. This time, there were two 'bells' during the race which signify that you could get a point and $10 if you win the next lap. I made one failed attempt to win one: I wasn't even in the top 10 for that lap. With 5 laps to go, I was way in the back of the pack. With 3 laps to go I started moving up--and it took all my willpower to do so--but again ended up missing the mark by the end of the race: I finished maybe in the top 15 out of perhaps 50. I wish that every cyclist would get a placement, not just the top 6. On the other hand it's an incentive to move up.
