OK, so the weather says chance of rain AGAIN Tuesday night... but let's get this baby fired up as we've taken way to many weeks off. Should be the last good chance to get a couple more sprints in before the Eagle Crit. Who's in?! :)

In

"Partly sunny with a 30 percent chance of rain showers. Much cooler. Highs 56 to 63. Northwest winds 15 to 20 mph. Gusts up to 35 mph in the afternoon."

After LP 200, that sounds pleasant ;)

thinking about it...

Jenny is busy, but I still may be able to break free for the ride. Where & when does this ride start?

Same story

Just the usual routine. Nate/Brad's at 6pm or camelsback a few minutes later.

No Go

Brian,

Did you get your clothes yet? The sheet was still in the box and I wasn't sure when I picked up the old jerseys to send back to Voler. Also, there are a few people that still need to pay for the jersey's they are keeping. Please do so as soon as you can.

Thanks!

Yes

Brad,
I picked up my stuff last week from Meridian Cycles. Thanks-Brian

Sounds good.

Thanks Brian! We will think of your "spirit" while we ride tonight :)

Is Brian OK?

Sounds like he's dead and we'll be in mourning or something tonight. ;) I might mourn if it's raining though.

not enough rain...

I had to be home by 6:00, so I got a short ride in before then. But I was all geared up for a big rain, and only got a sprinkle. Oh well.

So how was the "official" ride?

Official Ride

It was good. We also missed most of the rain. It was light and a bit windy... but not bad at all. We did some stomps and then a monster hill that almost had both Denning's puking. I had to stop and regroup while the others hammered on without me. I didn't think I felt the best, but analyzing the numbers afterwards I actually set new personal max power records from just over 1min all the way up to 5min. Amazing really... as I didn't feel good at all. Hopefully it's a good sign for the crit on Friday though, I won't get dropped until about 6mins at least. :) I think the LP200 was the shock my body needed to finally improve a little bit.

will you stop it already???

Dang, I'm already jealous of your power meter, do you have to keep pointing out how useful it is and how much you use it? :)

Secret Agenda

It's my stealth plan to try to get somebody else converted to the dark side...

SRM K Force

There is a 175 SRM K Force crankset on Ebay i am watching. It will probably go for way too much If it goes cheap enough I might pick it up. It is only at .99 right now.

That thing would be very cool. I think they retail for close to $3500 though... ouch.
