I got dropped on my first crit then nearly crashed into a fence when I clipped a pedal on my second, do it more and skills will improve making it easier (though unfortunately the main thing that helped me was increasing my FTP by 100 Watts and that took a while. ๐ )
Crits snap off quick and hold pace. Took me about a year for me sort out my training. I joined cat 3/4 right off the bat. First racw i got 17th. Second i got 9th. Third i did the omnium and got 9th overall. Crit racers are a different breed of cyclist. I prefer stage racing for a reason.

Great job, gotta push out of our comfort zones from time to time! Do you have a white and a black RCR, ballinโ ?!
I might have seen you. I was in London and saw the race
Would have been easier to start with a four corner course. That 180deg u-turn looks brutal. ๐ for hanging in there.
awesome!! I was lapped in my first crit!! lol
