A Good Ride!

Tuesday night saw the largest number of "night-time riders" out at Progress park yet this winter season. In addition to those of us who have been coming out regularly, Carl and Huan joined us as well. Scott's family was even on hand to get some fun miles in thier legs...and let me just tell you, Scott's 9-year old son, Justin, was out there holding 19 mph for the first part of the ride. So those of you who are taking it easy this winter season, are going to be surpassed by Junior sensation!

We did another 2 hours through the brisk night air with patches of low-lying fog that made for a very theatrical ride. We didn't encounter any deer this time, but the ride went quickly due to some great conversation with a good portion of "trash-talk" sprinkled in.

We encourage all skill levels to come out and ride the course with us, or at your own pace. The more the merrier!

In other news...
• The Gators are taking on the Cocks this weekend up in South Cacalaka. The Ol' Ball Coach will be leading his cocks against his former team. The Gators are struggling with some injury issues right now and will hopefully be able to overcome them in time to put a whoppin on what will surely be a highly motivated S. Carolina team.

• I'll be forgoing the GCC ride on the south end of town this saturday. Instead, I'll be out at San Felasco doing some cross-training in order to acclimate myself to the fat tire bike in preparation for the Tour de Felaso in January. Anybody wishing to join me, feel free.

I have to agree with you, going around in circles has not been as bad as I thought it was going to be (yes I know this is only week 2 and the temperature is still tolerable) and I think it is because of the group that we have to ride with I can't imagine riding with a better group of people. So for any of you guys sitting on the fence about coming out to the ride come on it's a blast! You can bone up on your smack talk and your riding skills all in one place!

See Ya Tonight!
