Highlights included:

• making the time cut in stage 1 after getting dropped on the Dam climb
• making it to the base of stage 2's finishing climb
• not getting time cut against Levi & co. in the time trial (some did!)
• not crashing in the sketchy yet fairly easy criterium
• finishing stage 5 even though I was possibly the first rider dropped on the climb up to Mt. Bachelor
• hanging with my awesome teammates and great hosts Chris and Molly
• providing two feeds to my teammates
• seeing some teammates actually finish the whole race
