Today in Markham was my first bicycle race. There were 7 girls in my category. At first I was scared. But when I got started I was not. I got 6th in ITT. It was kind of hard. But next time I think I can go faster. In the road race I got 7th place. I stayed with the pack in the beginning. But lost them on the 2nd lap. I was not in the right gear. My gear was too spiny. I do not know why I didn't shift, but next time I will and I will go faster and stay with the group. I had fun and I'm excited to do it again in Barrie.
