Why Dose Realizing I Missed A Race Make Me Panic?

Why dose realizing I missed a race make me panic?

I missed last weekends race. The root 66 one in ware MA; I didn’t realize there was a race till about an hour before the start of the race so I went through my panic mode for about 10 min till I realized that there was no way I was going to make it before the start. I was a little bit disappointed in myself and that I was so worked up and worried about it.  I go to these races for fun (I thought) so why did I get so flustered.

If I am alone riding fast and no one is around to see or care the ride doesn’t feel quite as fulfilling as if I rode fast in a race that had an official result and witnesses to prove that I had rode fast.  So I guess I to a degree I let my ego guide me.  The need for acceptance is pretty common I suppose.  If I didn’t care what anyone thought of me I would always we wearing the same sweat pants, I would ever shave and I would fart, pick my nose in public and wouldn’t race as much (if at all).

I can't agree with you more. Also, I think you panicked because cycling gives you the push to achieve goals your wouldn't have done otherwise. And being in the company of other cyclists is one of your ways of exposing the social side of your nature.
