Today's head tilt effort brought to you by pain. Ice cold and windy agony.

Finished 11th out of 21 at Matrix. For a race with 8 turns and 2 inclines I managed to stay with the pack until the new state champ atracked with 2 laps to go.
I then proceeded to eat my weight in hot dogs and tacos. Success.
