CSC Team Thread (Page 5)

Keep up the good work!

Just a note - I have 7 Thru Sunday or 8 through Monday.

As for going for 21 - it is just a fun idea that is contagious!!!!   Roll on CSC 

8 it is!!! Will update it since Im still waiting for a couple of teams to report in!

Have you looked at Chris Tree's log lately?  Well, apparently he is graduating from something and...this is what his school makes him wear. I think it is some Brit-type ceremony/ritual.  Looks like he can really run fast though.  Caught some air.  Hope his weekend went well, and that he can get some clothes on.  Lordamercy.  

Newbie Barloworlder blasts the competition -- alone!!! Here at BT, we're doing it together ... watch our wake. Overzealous to the point of impropriety ... and victory.

Hi - there has been a few requests in the last 24 hours to STOP posting live TDF updates in team threads. This is due to a lot of people wanting to watch the action later in the day WITHOUT knowing the results.

Would enough people be interested in taking the live action related discussions to another thread out of the team threads to avoid this issue? Team leaders can you please let me know?

I must admit Im probably the most guilty of this as I genuinely want teams to know whats happening with their pro counterparts to really get into it... and with me watching it live til 2am then heading straight it bed I get REALLY excited and post results...But... its more a time difference related head spin. I totally understand having to delay watching the action... I know not everyone can devote their whole life to TDF action for a month!

So my suggestion... is this....

1) No results from the previous nights stage will be posted in any Team thread until the next days stage starts... giving everyone 24 hours to watch the action or at least KNOW what to expect

2) Set up a seperate TDF Challenge - Live Action thread for teams to talk about their pro riders... (if there is enough interest)

3) If teams are happy to have stage updates posted in their Team thread let me know and I will continue - otherwise 24 hour code of silence applies to EVERYONE taking part in the challenge

What do you all think?

Okay, Okay, Trainer here I come  (Thanks Rick )

Ok as I mentioned earlier I have set up a thread to discuss the results of your team in the tour... its in the challenge forum and I suggest you use it to talk about the teams successes and make sure everyone else see's it!!

As I suggested earlier there is to be no talking about the previous stage in team threads UNTIL the next stage commences....

Please get in on the action its been very entertaining so far, and remember to take it in the spirit of fun and team spirit it is intended.

Happy Cycling

Way to keep knocking them out Rick!!!

This has been a week of short rides  - 3 extended trips home from work and one night on the trainer - I might be challenging for the prologue specialist if this keeps up, but none of them have been what you would call fast, fun yes, fast definitely not......

Should bump the saddle time back up over the next 3 days.   

Yet another trainer ride down ....... 13/21.

Tomorrow morning will be my weekly long ride.  60 miles planned.

Hey guys - Im 12/21 - mostly shirt rides i have to admit, still struggling a bit with illness and injury (and lack of sleep from staying up half the night watchign the tour) but really happy Im getting SOMETHING done!

Got #13 today.  1:37 wu, :30 TT and 1:03 back home for 58.5.

I don't know how to push for a TT 

Back from New Mexico. Here's how I spent my summer vacation: 

Nice week!!   Welcome back to CO 

Welcome back Mike! Just a quick reminder that I need everyones updates on rides to date int he next 24 hours.... I will have a look back in the thread but inc ase anyone has something to add
