The race stretch was a stark contrast in what racers do before a big and upcoming event. Some have rituals of certain things to do and some just do it at the very last second. Jack needed a walk to check things out and to meet Dallas his new biking friend. Paul is notorious for doing last minute prep. This brought back lots of memories of his swim team days as a young kid when I couldn't find him for his race that was on the starting blocks waiting for lane 4 to show up.
Now Chris had a more serious start of actual stretching and keeping warm in his out ragious over the top camper. Chris has done the race before and had more experience in the start of 700 riders in a mass start of "The Baker's Dozen 2010 Bike Race"
