That's right, the 2009 edition of the RACING GREYHOUNDS™ is back!  This Thursday, April 23, I will (hopefully) be meeting up with my fellow teammates for a ride around the park. 

I will be getting there around 5 and will hopefully be getting in one loop before meeting back at the Kent Lake lot to pick up more people at 6 for another loop.  Anyone wanting to meet me out there is more than welcome!  Look for a silver Nissan Versa with two bike racks up top.

What's the distance per lap and is there a projected speed?  Groups?  I work this Thursday.  But in the future!

It is a 12 mile loop around ILRA.  Some of us ride together, some by ourselves.  There is usually someone out there to ride your pace with you but we are at all different levels. Last year I would bet the average pace was around 18mph. There are some who are super fast and those of us who are cabooses.  Some want to do 1 loop and run, some want to do 3 loops.  We also do OWS in Trout Lake out there before the bike (this hound will wait until it warms up a little for that). Training night is whatever you want to make of it.

What Jo said.  The nice thing is since it is a 12 mile loop, you will generally run into someone you can ride with.  Each week we will post the intended workout for the week, so once swimming starts, you will know.  Also, sometimes we ride over to Kensington to do some hill repeats. 

I will try to send an email each week notifying everyone, but the standard place to check is here or on the Greyhound forum.

This sounds great, but don't think I can make it this Thursday.  I'll be there the following though.

Does anyone know how I-96W to Lansing from ILRA is right now. Is there a ton of construction?

Plan as of now is to be out there around 6pm, ride 2 loops, then head to MSU to pick up my daughter for the weekend. Will anyone be out there that late (6pm) or are you all bailing home before that?

I forgot to add this in the other post, but I likely won't be riding until 5:30ish, so I'll do a loop and come back to get those meeting for 6pm.

My plans have changed so I can ride with ya'll on Thursday.  Kimm, I can meet you at 5:30 for your first loop.  Do you normally park at the first lot that's straight through the gate?

We meet at Kent Lake, so yes, go straight after the gate and it's the first lot on your left.

I will probably be riding until 7ish, but 6ish is when I'll swing back by the lot to pick up others.
