Its baaaack! Same as what we did back on April 5th. Great chance to see how your fitness has evolved

or devolved

over the summer.

I am shooting to go under 10 minutes - so I need to "find" 35 seconds - any pushers out there willing to lend a hand? literally! Please people push me!!!

A few of us a riding out. Meet at the Switch Bridge at 5:15?

Racing starts at 6:30. done by 7:15 then a casual cruise back home covered in sweat and glory!!!

I'm probably in - but have a late meeting, so I'll have to see how it goes.

If I'm not at the bridge, I'll jump on with you guys on the goose along the way. Assuming you ride out there along the goose?

I haven't done this one before - just hoping I can get to the top without coughing up a lung!

Wanna tandem ride it Peter?

Awesome, yes we will go out the Goose. As for a tandem that would have to be one seriously overbuilt bike and while the uphill might be the death of us a downhill could get us the land speed record!!

I'll be there at 5:15 - ended my meeting early. It's all about priorities. Like my signature block says....

Well done Tripleshot!!! Great turn out and lots of points scored by our club. Kim tied for first and now sits a hair out of 3rd overall!!! Roland FLEW up the hill and Joe killed it. To be fair the big boys suffered but are considering having the results redone to reflect time per pound!

All other reportswelcome!!!

If anyone ever suggests I do that race again, well then.....something bad is going to happen.

That was crap - and I actually LIKE climbing!

That's ok - fat kid's revenge is coming this weekend. Gonna make sure I put some extra hurt on all those skinny climbers in the crits!!
