11-1-08 Ride

Riders,

Please note.. the ride for this Saturday will start at 9AM... that will allow mother earth to warm up a few more degrees and more importantly, it'll allow Mr. Sunshine to get well above the horizon and cast some rays this way. The time changed, but all the other details remain the same... the group meet at the parking lot of New Spring Church... and ride until there's no more ride left in the legs... for this time of year, that's about 45 miles, eh?

I'll be in absentia for this ride... and hopefully will return the following Saturday...

Here's props and well wishes for our local heroes as they kick it into another gear.... at Beach-2-Battleship, Wheel-less Whaley will conquer his first IRON distance event... TT-Bob will be burning rubber on the bike course as part of a relay team that has HIGH expectations.... and according to other sources.... and Jamie M from Easley and Ken F from Clemson will venture to Panama City Beach to have loads of fun in IMFL 2008... and believe or not, we have one PRO triathlete in the upstate of SC competing in IMFL... Peter K... who has a nice list of honors on the professional circuit.

Ride hard, Ride Long and have some fun..

PS... just for completeness... Iron Distance.. is 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike... followed by 26.2 mile run... all within 17 hours...

Okay, for this pic... I figured this blog site needed somthing to shake it up a bit??? so, just in case anyone checks the blog... I figured you'd want more than bike pics.... but, you never know???
