Subject: RE: Anyone up for a training weekend up north? I'm in for whatever fits into my training. The Mountain Man Sprint is this Sunday but the HIM is not until August 8. Next weekend, July 24, is the Taylor House Ride: 95, 65, or 45 mile options from downtown going east to Sunset Crater and the Painted Desert overview. I'm registered for the 65-mile ride and would love some company! The ride is not a race but a fundraiser for the Taylor House at Flag Medical Center where family of cancer patients can stay. Great occasion to get out of the heat and enjoy a ride in the cool pines. It's well-supported: lots of aid-stations and SAG vans. I did the 45-mile ride last year and really enjoyed it. Great BBQ afterward! http://www.absolutebikes.net/taylor/index.html |
