So, all last year I raced crits and got dropped and lapped all season.... first race of the new season is tomorrow and I don't wanna be that girl again this year. Let's see what happens!
I've got some better insight as to: *not* grabbing a handfull of brake as I swing out of a turn, crossing wheels and pulling through are NOT the same thing (i.e, don't be afraid to pull through for fear of momentarily crossing wheels), and for goodness sakes.... stay out of the wind, let someone stronger do the work until I work up my fitness.
So hopefully I can apply these things tomorrow. Any other crit tips?

Don't sweat it, you'll do fine. As long as you know your "areas of opportunity" you'll work through them and get better. Kick some butt tomorrow, we're all rooting for you!0
