Borrowed from www.duanebc.com. All of these taken, of course, before I went down for the second time, about 3/4 of the way to end, and out with a dislocated shoulder.
I note that I’ve decided not to go to Tobago at all. Apparently the medical system there is third world, and with my shoulder in a very delicate state at the moment, it doesn’t seem worth both the risk of further complications and the absence of good medical care if there are any such complications and the discomfort of travelling with one game arm. I’ve decided to use the time off to catch up on some coursework and other projects. I’ve got a flight credit for my cancellation, and there will be plenty of chances in the future to travel for interesting activities. It’s too bad this happened for this race, but it’s life – there are a certain number of disappointments along the way.
Some pics:
Later in the race – Bob Cameron, Chris Worsfold, me, Maurice Worsfold, Mike Korb
Kirk Obee, 2007 USPro Criterium Champ on my wheel, early in the race. Likely one of my favourite photos ever.
Bridging to the first chase group with Will Routley on my wheel. The leading trio, whom we were chasing, was about 5 seconds ahead of us here.
Nic Hamilton (l to r), me, Tyler Trace, Rob Britton (I believe)
