So we went to Sugarhouse park to watch the races, pretty boring.. I took a nap, that was nice. Dad wasn't racing till almost 4 so we went home to eat and nap some more. The plan to get diaper money didn't work out.. Dad didn't make the brake of 5 guys that made it to the finish first, one of his teammates did though so that was good.
Sunday Dad went to a crit near Park City, the course was hilly so diaper money looked imminent. Dad forced a break on the second lap, first it was 5 guys then 3, then just Dad and a kid named Tanner. They built their lead to a minute and thirty seconds and almost lapped the chase group. Tanner beat Dad in the sprint but was later disqualified for not using Jr. gears.. bummer for Tanner but good for us, we got his diaper money!
Monday the plan was for Dad to race mountain bikes and try to win some money. There was lots of rain sunday evening so the trails were muddy, the organizers decided to move the start back a few hours and then move it back even further to 12:30.. and then Dad found out that the money only goes to the top 3 places.. Dad is fast but we can't gamble with those odds, so we had Dad come home for family time.We went to the park for a bit and took a few naps.. it turned out to be a nice memorial day.
