Champion  6046    New York, NY |  Subject: RE: Cervelo Test TeamI am surprised Greece does not have any TdF coverage - it is still Europe.... Back from 43 mile ride (wussed out of the 15 mile tack on) 4000 ft of climbing - not nearly what our boys in France are doing but my little wimpy version.... I MIGHT download some of the courses from mapmyride for the computrainer for the winter - will have to pick one of the plain rides rather than mountain though! |

So pathetic! Cycling and cyclists aren't popular at all.... which reminds me that yesterday a driver came soooo close to killing me. He overtook me and turn right just in front of me to enter a tunel. Needless to say that I had to brake like crazy and my front wheel got less than 20cm from the side of his car! Now I'm so pissed with myself that I didn't get his plate number!Anyway... Have a great week team! |

Have a great week team! Oh that is scary!!!! I am often amazed at what drivers do - and sometimes pedestrians!!! It is one of the reasons I drove out to do yesterday's ride - quieter roads....long rides are hard enough without all the stupidity! |

Can't imagine biking on those roads. I had a car/bike collision in the US years ago and am still a nervous cautious rider to this day. Glad to hear you managed to avoid contact. Let it go and remember that you have to always ride defensively. Glad you are good to ride another day. |

Extreme Veteran 369 Maine | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team Hi team, Sorry haven't posted more Had my first tri last weekend, so last week was busy for me.... I am on track with this challenge though, both for the # of rides and for the total time that I had set initially. Haven't updated the spreadsheet, but will def do so prior to the close of the challenge. Hope everyone is on track, healthy, and enjoying the summer !!! |

Extreme Veteran 337 Houston | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team WOO HOO...go team!! Got in a ride today and yesterday. I must say just coming back is much harder than I anticipated. Hoping to get a ride in tomorrow but we will see. Have a good rest of the weekend everyone. |

Pro 4482 NJ | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team Afternoon everyone. Was a crazy week at work, so didn't get much done workout wise. Ran this morning. Will bike tomorrow. I decided to be a "big girl" and clean/lube the bike chain myself today. Nice neighbor guy or LBS guys usually do it for me. Wook. What a messy job that is. Especially if you let it get as dirty as I had. It does look very nice though now. Will now treat myself to a cold Stella Artois (or maybe two) and watch the Tour. |

Champion 6046 New York, NY | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team so after watching the Tour I went and did my planned stage. Despite not feeling well - definitely fighting something. On track to finish. and our boys are doing great!!! great to see Thor in green and now with the mountain stages he might have it for good!!! |

Expert 935 South eastern Ohio | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team Good afternoon Team, I loved watching the Tour again today and was so excited to see our guy Thor keep the green. Even if Cavendish did change lines and get some in his way. I am currently up to date on my Stages and hours and should be getting in to Paris with the guys. Everyone is doing just great and I love how we may not talk as much as some of the other Teams but we make up for it with our legs....kindof like our Cervelo Test Team. Have a great rest of the day and ride if you can. Chris |

Veteran 237 WA | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team Hi Team, Did the Valley Girl sprint tri today. Had a fun time. Going to call the bike ride a TT today because I hammered it on the bike. Great bike course. Got a total of 16 miles in because I rode to the race start |

Extreme Veteran 337 Houston | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team Great job! I watched the tour this morning which inspired me to try one of the hill courses on my trainer...and needless to say my legs are on fire! I have no idea how those guys do it. My legs are sore and tired after a couple days of my 22 mile ride and they are riding up to 5 hours a day! |

Champion 6046 New York, NY | Subject: RE: Cervelo Test Team all I kept thinking as I was out there today is that they went UPHILL for 8 miles at a time at like 7% grade with wattage over like over 400 - that is a TOTALLY different sport than what I do!!!! I was not feeling well, but still rode 60 miles. A true HTFU ride. |
