SVR for 11-24-07

Riders,

I hope everyone is ready to ride! My daughter informed me that the typical Thanksgiving Meal (aka eating marathon) has about 5000 calories. She didn’t bother to tell me about the calorie content of the various snacks and assorted goodies consumed during the rest of the day. So, I think it’s time to ride so we can put that stored energy to good use. According to what I read, the best way to burn calories is to stay in HR target zone less than 3, right? So, I do not plan to go anaerobic. My mission continues to build base miles for next year.

Join a thankful bunch of riders this Saturday for the BEST ride of the day. We’ll meet at New Spring Church parking lot. Our rollout time is 0900 on the dot!!! Our route continues to be ~44 miles… There are several riders who are out of town enjoying the holiday with family. We’ll miss Griz who is partaking of sunshine in Florida. Vortex is at the beach (yes, the Vortex riding again!). So, that’s two riders who are out and we’re looking for someone to fill the void in the paceline.

So, the Tigers play in Columbia, Thanksgiving is over, Friday is for shopping, that means Saturday is for riding, right?

Mike the “base-builder”

PS. last weekend we had many riders, even Tony joined us!!! However, the correct number of riders for the SVR can be described as N+1… N = the number riders from last week and the “1” is YOU!!!

PSS or PPS... the parking lot of New Spring Church is off McGee Road... McGee Rd connects Hwy 81 to Concord Rd in Anderson, SC.... a New Spring Church sign is on Concord Road, very close to where Concord intersects with Hwy 81... hope to see you there!!!!
