Let's try this again....4/19-20th??

I'm still up in the air on plans.  I was thinking about doing a first time ride for some folks around this way.  Holly Rec Area or Seven Lakes. 

Some locals showed a little interest, but I didn't keep track of who, or is it whom .... ?

Thinking Saturday morning, as soon as its warm enough.  A couple miles of running after is optional.

My Sundays are now officially shot until mid-June.  

I would like to hit Poto soon though... 

I'll be up for running a lap at Kensington (my first this season!).  I'd love to ride too, but I'm still not confident on my new wheels so I may do that one on my own.... so that if I do anything really dumb no one knows. 

I'll probably be on power cranks....you'll won't be the only one looking odd out there. 

'bout time I asked.... what the hell are power cranks?

thanks.  
(the girl who's still figuring out her pedals)

They are cranks that work independent of each other, like doing single leg drills the entire time you're riding.

i might be up for some fun on saturday! did you say kensington for the bike? i don't know if i could handle the hills without dying.

jeez, was it something I said?

I'm going to throw this one out there.  Anyone want to meet in Fenton at the French Laundry, then take a somewhat leisurely trip south to Kensington and back? Is about 21 miles each way. I figure there, back, and a trip around the park while there will make it a tidy little 50 miler.  I may have one experienced rider, plus myself (less experienced).

That's what I'm thinking. The French Laundry is at the northern most point of that route.

Don't bother going to the start of the route ... nobody lives there ... really, don't try it ... I'm serious.

I would be all abou tthat but 50 miles is WAY out of my league right now.  I am still doing less than 10 right now and going 5 times that distance is not a good idea I think! 

Have fun out there!

If anyone's up for a run, I'm still going to be doing 8 (a lap) at Kensington on Saturday morning.  I'd love company!  I think I'm going to aim early- probably starting no later than 8am.

Shoot me an inspire if you'll be out there so I know (in case I forget to check back). 

cheers!

Its gonna be real slow for me.

It's pretty good.  I like the spicy honey mustard stuff.  Honeybell Mustard?

Good coffee and beer too.

OK... I am so tempted to do this 50 miler, with the sandwich stop.  That sounds like heaven.  But my flight to Austria leaves at 4.  If I go, I might not be back in time for the flight.  And that would be bad.

Ah man ... I'll miss ya.

You are going to two weeks, right?  It won't be the same without you. 

What do you do with the dogs?!?!?!
