No more Joe (8-9)

Our first ride withour Joe...
• I was recovering from my cold
• Danny was taking it easy also due to a cold and actually went short today
• overall average speed went down about 1.5 mph
• Huan won the sprint
• I never got out of the saddle in the sprint because I skipped so many pulls
• Those present: Huan, Myself, Lambert, Scott, Ira, Susan, Naked Ed
• Speaking of Naked Ed...it was good to have him back in the mix today

The Tues/Thur group of cyclists decided that Joe Brew had earned the "white jersey" for being such an outstanding young rider. Even though it didn't come in on time, we got him an actual white jersey to commemorate his abilities. This jersey also may keep Joe from wearing old, thin cotton t-shirts. (see Joe magazine cover from previous post).

The jersey finally came in (big thanks to Danny for ordering and overseeing that whole process) and it was brought to today's ride. We all took a picture with it and will send it along to Joe in Tenn..



Finally...to commemorate Huan's win today, and his ability to replenish his blood supply, I give you his magazine cover!

Huan,
I can only guarantee that I'll correctly spell your last name if you change it to Smith, Jones, or Brown. Just be happy that I got all the correct letters in there.
...and the word is "misspell", not "missed spell"...since we're keeping track.
