Nothing like sleeping in late.  I was up about 10 minutes after I wanted to get up but still thought I had enough time to get to the NCCX Race number 9.  Unfortunately, I underestimated the trip time by about 10 minutes, didn't expect to miss a turn, and ultimately miss my race. 

I did find the course about 10 minutes after my race started so I watched my friends race.  The course looked brutal with a lot of climbing.  Not too many riders looked as though they were having fun.   I'm almost glad I missed the race.  I had a hard ride on Saturday, much harder than I wanted.  I did the Solstice ride out of the Cycle Path in Davidson and it was 'game on' for some reason.  I probably would have suffered bigtime in the race.

I will be there on time for the race in Winston Salem and hope to be competitive for the first time all year.
