Well, I went hard on the way to the race, but the race was way harder
than the commute, and the commute was 10 minutes of uphill commuting, 20
minutes of rest on the train, and 13 km of commuting with a pretty big
climb at the end:

The climb was fairly intense, but not redline. The crit was two good,
effortless laps, a third harder lap, and then I got dropped and carried
on with a pair of chasers. Three became two, with him leading me up the
hill, and me towing him down (heavy FTW on descents!)
That lasted until we got passed by the pack just before they took the
bell, and I pulled off then.
Results may vary.
