Hey kids!

Well, after last weeks much un-fun swim in Spring Mill pond, KL and I are headed back to test the waters of Trout Lake.  Yeah, it takes forever to walk there, yeah its buggy, blah blah.  At least there aren't teenagers lying in their own end-of-school-means-get-totally-shat-faced-puke and angry fishermen throwing lines at your head.

SO!  Meet in the Kent Lake lot and be prepared to walk to Trout by 5:30 for one lap of the lake followed by one loop of the park.

Post up if you're in!


(PS:  for those that may be new, look for the silver Nissan Versa with 2 bike racks up top)

I'm in, but not planning on swimming.  I want to try and get 3 laps on the bike.  Need some time in the saddle.

I am most definitely in, however I have no idea if I will make it in time for your 5:30 start.  Depends on when Tom rolls in to tag team with the kiddo (and then the insane traffic between here and there).

Even so, I will be swimming 2 laps across TL and back and then riding.  Perhaps I'll give you high fives as we cross in the lake?

I am in for a swim, but with time I am not sure if I can meet the 5:30 arrival.  In fact I can garuntee that I cannot.

I can possibly make it there between 6-6:30pm  (traffic is very iffy right now coming from Auburn Hills)- 1-2loops swimming for sure, short short short and no crazy hill bike to follow.  Sushi or anyone else need to meet later to secure a swim? 

I did a different route on SMP (reverse triangle twice, non-stop) and had no issues last night, so if no one can meet me then I will have to swim there to be safe.  =

 

Work = hella bizzzzeeeee

Yeah, that would be awesome.  Unfortunately I don't know when Tom will arrive.  Maybe I can snag a sitter.

I'll be out there too.  Should do 2 laps of the lake, but only if there's someone else who wants to join.

Kimm's going to hate me for this....but we should be doing at least 1.5 laps on Thursday. You can probably talk me into a full 2 laps. Shhhh....don't let Kimm know. I'll have to try and sweet talk her into it later!

You know its shorter to come back straight across than to walk around, so you might as well do the 2 laps!

Dumb question, but I've never swum at ILRA other than yesterday's tri. Is Kent Lake itself normally not open for swimming/covered with recreational vehicles/??

We will not be swimming in the same lake.      Park in the same lot and walk towards the woods down the trail. People will be in the parking about 5:30 .  I drive a red ranger.

Kent Lake is just much nastier than Trout.  I drive a silver Nissan Versa with stickers/bike racks.  Meet up with us and we'll show you a much cleaner place to swim.

Won't make it tonight, but might grab a buddy and head up next Thursday. We'd be departing from A2 around 5/5:30, though, so I expect we'd be moseying in at 6.

Sorry I missed out on all the fun.  Wasn't feeling the greatest,  so I decided to just stay home.  I'll be at the next one, and it looks like Jamie will get to come out and play as well!!!
