Another Road Ride

Wednesday night the trails were soaked, but the roads were clean and dry.  Another strong ride was put forth by all, even Ali.  We left the comforts of Ali's driveway and made the way out to Aburg.  
Quiet ride, other than Ali's constant chirping and yipping (just kidding, sort of).  Next week perhaps we all hope to be on the trails.  Still no whereabouts of the Guthrie boys, Jer and the man they call Smitty.  Jamie P. will be bringing beer. allegedly.  Good times fellas, and good news.... Summer is here!

Old Dogs and New Tricks

Last night we had our crew of old dogs put in a pretty good ride.  An average of roughly 30 km/hr over a distance of 60 km.  Coinsidently we had two new riders join the group, Jamie Perisonotti and Ian (findly got a road bike).  Jer this should inspire you to ride on the dark side with the rest of us.
Some possible reasons why the group has been riding so well that were discussed over bevies include:

  • loss of dead weight - Guthrie brothers
  • a leaner, healthier group
  • off season steroid program 
Anyway good ride and thanks to Mark for hosting and chips (Todd too).  Any bets on road or mountain for next week...

Is the Season On?

     I am not really sure if the season is on yet.  Clearly CRC attendance has been down for the first two weeks almost to the point that maybe attendance points shouldn't be awarded????  Apparently when I am not riding things all fall apart.  What happened to the beer list?  What happened to keeping attendance? Guys I can't be there to hold your hand every week.  It is time Ali puts on some big boy pants and gets this organized?  Speaking of Ali putting on big boy pants, will he ever put on CRC bike shorts again? His randonneur escapades has left his bum-bum a little to chapped to ride on Wednesdays.

     So I showed up at Mark's this week to find out that Mark was providing another set of chips.  Many non-riders showed up sans chips.  Some of the things that we discussed were the need to get the beer order going, whether Caitlyn Jenner was hot and did he/she bear an uncanny resemblence to Ali?, and the need to update our email contact list.  There are people on that list that hasn't ridden with us for years, so be forewarned if you follow this.  
     Attached is the updated beer list.  Ian is up for this week.  Mike next week.  If you can't make it please go let the next person on the list know.  Hopefully, we'll be on the trails before long.
