Garmin Slipstream (Page 3)

There's one cog that it doesn't want to shift onto or wants to skip over. It's actually in a combo that I probably shouldn't be in anyway. My race route is supposed to be pretty flat so hopefully I won't be in the small chain ring using small cogs.

Hello Argyle!

Got in my 15 to and from the my meeting.  I should be ducking out of work early and hitting the road again today and hopefully I'll be hitting the dirt this weekend

Got in a short ride yesterday evening.  Been sick, so nothing big.  Every little bit gets us closer to 100% though

Happy Friday!!!

Toutes autres équipes doivent s'inclinent avant un vrai champion français

(hehe never thought we would get a win, so gotta talk trash while we can...)

WOW two in a row.  We need to get a couple more on the attack!

I got in 15 yesterday.

Good morning team

I'm off riding soon. I have an hour ride planned and a 30 minute run after. Hope it doesn't rain or storm....

booooo! :P

looks like the storms will hold off until later so I should be able to get in a lot of miles once I finish watching stage 8

Just got back from a nice 50 mile ride. Loving the new bike. Looks like our team is doing pretty well after 1 week, keep up the good work everyone!!

I'm thinking Garmin Slipstream is looking very respectable since the start of the tour.  Stage wins are one thing but they have some action in the standings.....  Got ride # 4 of 9 planned in today.  I honestly cannot imagine how hard it would be to ride one of those TdF stages never mind mostly daily......for 21 stages..... :P

Nice riding everyone.  Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Third session done yesterday. 1h15minutes. I wanted to ride a bit longer but it started to rain so I turned back. Then I did a 20 minute run Good times.....

I'm new at clipless pedals. I'm doing pretty good, I don't forget to unclip and haven't fell YET LOL Yesterday I get to a very busy intersection and can't unclip my right foot (which is my 'good' side). It's stuck there and won't come out. I'm thinking that's it I'm going to fall!! I managed to undo my shoe and take it off (like I learned with my tri-club). Whew that was close LOL I think my HR was at 350!!! I had to pry the shoe off the pedal.... Luckely I have 2 sided pedals and rode to my LBS and they fixed it for me. That was a scary experience LOL

GO TEAM GARMIN

Today's stage was the bike portion of a triathlon-turned-duathlon.

Close call, good job avoiding the spill! I fell a couple times in the first week with my clipless pedals when I first got them several years ago, always hurts the ego more than anything else!

how was your race?! and why did they cut it down to a du?

So I took today off because my legs were starting to feel pretty crappy this morning and I was tired from a late night. The weather was so nice I had to do something outside after returning from the bike shop, so I took the dogs hiking/swimming at North Lake, not too far from here. They had a blast and it was so fun being outside just enjoying the afternoon.

Sounds like a smart move.  Great photo too!

Happy Monday Team Argyle!

After Kayaking, I went for a 7.5 mile MTB ride on Sunday.  This is the course for my X/C tri in October.

Finally, a great weekend in the Northeast and I was happy I got to take advantage of it.

Just finished a brick workout.. bike portion was 17.95 miles. Hope everyone is having a good day!

There was heavy rain overnight so by morning the river was high, fast, and dirty. They replaced the swim with the 1.9 mile run the registered duathletes would be doing.

As I was setting up transition I couldn't wrap my mind around doing a du and decided that all I cared about was maximizing the bike. I took run1 at a comfortable pace, didn't stress at all in T1, and then threw everything at the bike. My goal was 20mph. I was passing everything in site and wasn't passed at all until 12 miles in when 3 women got past me and I couldn't keep pace with them. I ended up missing 20mph by 13 second, probably lost it on the dismount and run over the timing mat.

My legs were totally trashed at this point and run2 was a real suffer fest and I was so glad when it was over.

The bike ride was SO much fun, everything else not so much. The whole race and race weekend suffered from logistical problems and I won't be repeating this race!

wow sounds like you knocked the bike out of the park! great job!

I would definitely count that as 20 mph Nicole- nice going!!  Bummer about the race but at least they played it safe.

Got in stage #5 tonight at spin class for the Garmin Slipsteam team.  My goal is a total of 9 so it's looking good so far.
