@belgianwaffleride California!
I had been eyeing the OG BWR event since I sarted racing gravel and it didn’t disappoint.
After pushing to get a gap on the first climbs of the day,
@courtney.sherwell and I rotated together for a bit before I took off and spent the rest of the day solo. I kept pushing hard even after hearing my gap increase as I wanted to get a big TSS day in (Unbound incoming) and wanted a cushion in case I got a mechanical.
I’m overjoyed to take my first BWR win, and to share the podium with such rad women
@courtney.sherwell ,
@hannahgshell @mjlopezaguirre @brecknball92 . The day was made sweeter with
@daxtonmock ‘s victory in the men’s field; those
