Go Lance!!! Anyhow...I gotta ride in tonight inside. I certainly have my interval training in ![]() I'm pulling for Lance. In spite of being on a French Team in the TdF! :-) Me! I haven't been a big fan of cycling in the past and i don't particularly love Lance but i really do hope he wins! It would be just great! Anyway, I got my 6th of 9 stages in. This summer feels jam-packed and I am so very tired! It should be nice this weekend as I am taking my dad to see the blue jays play the red sox for father's day - this was his gift... he picked the day. Go Red Sox ![]() I used to live in RI/MA so I enjoyed those games at Fenway. Yeah! GO Sox! |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Finally got stage 5 in this afternoon. 19.29 miles in 1:12. Half way there with a week to go. Need to kick it up a notch to get finished but should be a good week next week. Looking to get a long ride in tomorrow, we'll see how that works out |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() So have at least one racer this weekend (have a great time w) what's everyone else up to for the weekend? I have a two hour ride scheduled. which I might do on the trainer tomorrow - will just be easier to be at home given that I have my out of towners (family) coming - and I can watch some of my netflix videos. Outside would be better but I just don't see it happening. |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() stage 6 done, only 16.87 miles. About all I could muster riding a second straight day in 30 mph winds. Need to get some sleep and hope the wind dies down this weekend |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Got in my 7th stage today while watching the Tour. The end was pretty exciting! And a great way to pass the time on the trainer! Had fun at the game with my dad and sister - the Jays' won - yeah - (but not the night before :S) and it was nice because we were sitting around a ton of Sox fans ... weird, being in Toronto and all. And then we went to Wayne Gretzsky's restaurant which i knew my dad would love because he's a total hockey nut ... should mention that my family live about two hours from Toronto so all these things are a big treat! |

superb kvesey. putting us all to shame! i did a 30 minute trainer ride which got me to 71% of my total. so not too bad after last week's hell. the red no logos have overtaken us blue logos though so boo hiss! but overall as a team we are doing great. we should all be gunning for about 74% by now so if you aren't and you need any encouragement or help just holler. let's kick some a$$ peeps! |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Great job team! You guys are rockin'! I swear I'll meet my goal...just may be last minute, one of those 'whew' type finishes ![]() Had hoped to ride today but kiddo was crabby, hubby was not keen on time alone with the screamin' meaney kid either ![]() Don't fear! I won't let the team down. |

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() stage 7 done for 18.9 miles. A little less wind today only about 15 mph. Managed to sneak one in this morning after work and before the wife went to work. |

Well... if you give me a 2 minute handicap for the heat, I was right there with some of my better 5K times. But the heat and humidity just sucked it out of me! |

Yeah you get big points for racing in the heat!! I'd need more than two minutes even in a 5k. I did a half marathon that was crazy hot and it's more than 10 minutes slower than any other half i've done. I just felt like garbage the whole time. So way to go on getting out there!! |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I just have one more stage to go and i've completed my tour. YAY! I've been getting a lot of trainer time but it's the easiest thing to do with busy work schedules and all these days of double workouts. |
