Indy Crit

The 2nd annual Indy Crit has quickly become one of the 'must do' races in Indiana. I mean, how many other times to you get to race on wide, closed off streets in downtown Indy? This year featured a sweet new figure-8 course (which still retained the bricked section of Market Street & the NW quadrant of the circle from last year's course), and a great festival-like atmosphere with vendor booths, Flat 12 beer garden, misting tents for the racers, a decked out Mini Countryman pace car courtesy of Dryer Reinbold, and a pro-like start/finish line sandwiched between University Park and the Federal US Court House.

The pack hitting turn 1 early in the race.

There were 90 racers that lined up for the 3/4 race, including Yancey, Reed, Ryan, Mygrant and Romain. The fast pace, crashes, and 90+ degree temps resulting in just under 50 racers finishing the race, with Mygrant being our top finisher in 17th place. Yancey slid into the top 5 with 3 laps to go, but feel victim to cramps that had him barely hanging on, to finish at the back of the main field. Romain also finished safely with the pack. Ryan and Reed both had their day cut short as a result of being caught behind multiple crashes. A big thanks to Team Nebo Ridge for all their hard work in making this race such a great event - can't wait to come back next year!
