Last Date At the Dairy
Published 2021-02-28
I allowed myself one last pity ride through Alpenrose after hearing the news.
I regret every race I declined here. I regret that the only track racing I ever did was one clinic. Gather your memories while you can.
I won’t be back. This hurts too much.

How many times did I eat gravel on this corner?
I get startline jitters just looking at this spot

I did exactly one track clinic here
No alleycatting in the ’drome
This field holds the ghosts of a thousand races
Goodnight, Dairyville
the OBRA fleet
A long last look goodbye
