Ride for 6-7-08 and a Request
Riders,
Start your hydration plan and get out the sunscreen... we're riding Saturday morning.. in the sunshine and the HEAT!!! So, if you're not vacationing, resting for the Festival of Flowers tri, or busy with the family, come join the other riders in the area for the SVR (Saturday Velo Ride)... We depart at 0800 SHARP from the parking lot of New Springs Church... we'll stick to the usual and customary route of 43 mile give or take... and depending on how much jaw-boning there is in P-ton... we might talk the whole group into riding Simms Mill like we did 2 weeks ago... Confession time... I'm not one for changing the route.. but, Simms Mill was a blast!!!! even for a non-climber like me!!!! and depending on time, temperature, fluid status and who's up for what, perhaps we'll visit Mac's for a second time?
Here's a special request.... from someone looking to join our "roadie ranks".. and I quote... " Hi all, I am an injured marathoner and would like to start cycling/tri's. So, I am in good shape, but know zilch about a bike. I am looking for a good used women's 53cm, possibly 54cm road bike.... any possible leads on a good bike would be most welcomed!!! Please post a comment and we'll hook buyer and seller up for the exchange...

This just in.... for this Saturday, BridgeRunner (aka Reggie) will run short on time.. so he's going to take few short cuts to allow his timely return to the home front... his route is 33 miles or so.. and he's riding straight through.. not much time for bumping gums, story tellin' etc... that man is on a schedule!!!!
Who's in???
Now, rumor has it .... and the proof is in this pic (thanks to Spidey)... that Wheel-less is going aero... full aero with this helmet!!!! just think how fast he'll be next time?? of course, to be fast on the bike.. you have to GET on the bike??? the other story... which as some facts.. he stood us up for the TNR... (TRUE).. but said he went out and did interval training?? (can I get a witness to that???)... the real question is... doesn't a 19.4 mile ride from P-ton to the turn off road count as an interval??? it does for ME!!!!
