New Season

It looks like the weather has finally taken a turn for the better and the trails are drying up.  I'll let Mark sum up the start of riding season....


Okay...so let's summarize...

This week's ride will start at 6:00 p.m. from Ali's place and finish there. 

Russ (you may remember the tall kid with no power in his legs) will bring the beer. Don't forget last year we invoked the "If it your turn to buy the beer, you bring at least two bags of non-ass-flavoured chips too" rule. Got it Russ? (NOTE: See Liam below)

Mark is inviting Arthur Nagy, a good guy who has been spinning with some of us all winter. (Yes, I know the rule...but I am sure he will kick some of your asses...especially since he trained with me and has done some triathlons).

Dave is bowing out blaming me for his absence...I did tell you Dave the spinning classes finished last month. What you volunteered to do after that was you own doing!

Scotty may or may not show...something about having to work on his cottage so all his other friends can come for a visit this summer.

Smitty...well...he never reads his email on time. Didn't show last week because he was watching his grass grow instead of reading his email earlier on Wednesday afternoon to know there was a ride.

Jeremy...he'll show up...at least the tired-ass part of him that poops out 3/4 of the way through the ride.

Craig...well...he'll most likely be late. There isn't enough time for him between his 3:30 departure from school to make it home, have a couple of beers, squeeze one out, and drive all the way here for 6:00. He'd prefer an 8 p.m. start so he can get home later and not have to worry about putting the kids to bed too!

Rodney...well he is a no excuse guy...expect him to show up with his tuned-up ride ready for action again this week....this is unless he is heavily involved in one of his other weight loss cross-training events.

Ali...well...he has no choice...we are meeting at his place...make sure things are spic and span clean for us Ali. By the way, I like my burgers medium-well please.

Ian...expect Ian to hit the trails with his new stallion again, and leave a trail of sweat for all those stragglers to follow so they don't get lost

Matt, Jim and Rob...the elusive road race trio. You gents (used loosely here) may be extreme road cyclist now, but don't forget your roots. Get your sorry asses out for the ride on these off-race-week rides with us. Remember, CRC is where you learned everything you know (which isn't much to brag about!).

Liam...steady Liam is in for a record 100% attendance this week. He says he is bringing beer. You and Russ had better decide who is really bringing beer.

Jay...expect an appearance from Jay this week. Stay away from beans for the day please!

Well, that should just about do it! If i left anyone unscathed, I apologize. I'll try hard next time.

See all or some of you for the ride.


Mark
