Master 2201 Elgin, | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread This afternoon I plan on getting some riding in. Probably a short ride, may 10mi or so. Tomorrow will be a slightly longer ride, 20+mi. To make up some lost time I may ride the exercise bike on or both days to get some stages back. I may have had a slow start but I will get what I said I would do. I hope everybody is enjoying their biking and using there time thus far better than I have. |

Master 1817 Lafayette, IN | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread Got my third stage in yesterday - a 2 hour ride. I hadn't planned on being out for that long but I got a little lost on some country roads. Maybe next time I should look at a map in advance instead of just winging it! I finally managed to upload the photos I took earlier in the week. It's no wonder I got lost out in the boondocks. It's hard to figure out where you are when you're surrounded by nothing but this:
Sometimes I have to go looking for hills. Out in farm country it tends to be kinda flat.

Elite 2443 Athens, Georgia | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread I love getting lost on a ride. There is nothing better than a long ride with new scenery. Ok there is one better thing...but that takes a hottie to draft off of and those are not always available. Good ride though. I will be heading out for about a 75 miler maybe longer in and hour or so. I have decided I am going rain or shine but preferably shine. Lets smash these goals. Go team Quickstep. |

Master 1688 ALSAGER, CHESHIRE. UK | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread 60 miles on Sunday. Some of the hardest grueling climbs I have ever done. 5982ft (1823m) of climbing. Next week I have to do 1200m's more (I think), in my challenge ride. At one stage I saw speed showing at 3.3mph. It was that steep.

Elite 2443 Athens, Georgia | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread OUCH that is a ton of climbing I am so jealous of the view in your rides. I need to go find some more back roads and get lost. |

Those hills are the Rocky Mountains that you see. I haven't gotten the guts to try any cycling through them yet. I am working up to it. |

Expert 769 Murfreesboro, Tennessee | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread Picked up my 3rd stage today. It was a short one, but I have to get in 13 stages. In the morning I am riding with a guy who is training for IMAZ. I am a sprint guy right now, so it's probably going to be pretty tough. I should get some good miles in however. Let's keep it up!! |

Veteran 174 Columbus, GA | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread Well...I was gone for week one in Vegas but was back for week two finishing my fist week at 90.99 miles. Not too shabby. Looking forward to getting in some great rides this week, even though this week is a swim focused week according to my plan. I may have to get a couple of long trainer rides in there just to get in some miles. Everyone have a fantastic week!!! |

Master 2201 Elgin, | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread Ok, so the commute into work today made stage number 7. I am inching ever closer to my goal. 28 min for 7.2mi. Nothing spectacular, but it is some riding either way. |

Veteran 187 Ontario, Canada | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread Got my first ride of the challenge in this evening (and I think my first ride in the past 9 months or so). A very slow 18 miles for 95 minutes. I've got the next 3 days off work so I'm hoping to get a few rides in to get caught up. Looks like everyone else here is kicking some serious butt. Keep up the great work!!! Dee |

Elite 2443 Athens, Georgia | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread Well my ride is in the shop so I have been sporting the MTB again. This sucks. I am running a 5k race this Friday so I will probably run for the rest of the week anyway and have to kick some but this weekend and beyond to catch up. Glad to see everyone riding though. |

Elite 2443 Athens, Georgia | Subject: RE: Quickstep Team Thread My bike is ready at the bike shop WOOO HOOO. It seams I did quite a bit of damage to the bearings in my rear wheel so they had to replace them and true the wheel. But no more stinking MTB rides. I like trail riding on it just not distance riding. Especially for this challenge. 300 miles is way more than I have ever done in this time frame so will be good to be back on the tri bike. Our goals are getting there. Keep up the good work. I am going to bring my camera on my ride tomorrow so I will have some pictures for you guys. Good luck. Mike |
