Brent does well at the Greenbrier Challenge

I spent the last weekend racing down in Maryland, The Geenbrier Challenge. It was a USAC National Cat 2 race along with an AMBC race. For the pros, it was a UCI points race, so there were some good riders like Bishop, Eatough, Wells, Compton and Haywood. I raced the Expert 19-29 and placed 2nd out of 21.
It was a great course with 2 major climbs, 2 smaller climbs, lots of east coast rock, and some screaming fast techy downhills. Total climb for the 5.7 mile loop was 735ft, so it is not as flat as MI. I kept the rubberside down and flew down the downhills. The Crispy's 101 class to downhilling pays off!!! I started off the race in the back of the pack after a 3 man pile-up on the first corner. Fun course and a great time racing. -Brent
