Sunday, may 29th, I raced in the Georgia State Championship Series race at Dauset Trails near Jackson, GA. I'd been in a bit of a slump this year and hadn't podiumed, so that was my goal. I seems to always be hot and humid at Dauset races, and this year was no exception. I had a much better start than usual, no doubt aided by the knowledge that there was $100 award to the fastest lap. That proved to be elusive for me, but at least I was in the running for a spot on the podium after the first of three laps. I wasn't really sure how I was doing until I started my third lap and the announcer stated that I was hot on the wheel of the guy in first....so I found his wheel and passed it. Despite losing time to a mishap and bonking a bit due to poor nutrition, I held off the competition for the best spot on the podium.
