Looks like I will be riding in the middle of the day. I think the MH is sponsoring The Charles Finney Ride tomorrow morning at 8 from The Factory Outlet Mall. It is a fundraiser ride for them each spring. Which IM are you training for, IM TX or CDA or something else?Have you thought about hooking up with a local Tri Team, while you are in Memphis? Which ones?

I'm training for Texas and Florida. I got in to Texas late and the move has completely killed my training. Luckily I crapped the bed in Texas last year so even with my poor training I still have a shot at beating my time. Was hoping to get in with the Memphis Thunder so I'll need to hook up with some team members to help me out, I've just been so busy painting and unpacking that I haven't had the chance.

Very cool. When you need someone to ride long, I'd be glad to go with you as my schedule allows. I know a few others doing FL that you maybe able to hook up with too, since they will be on a similar training schedule. I'm focusing on the shorter distances this year. When the time comes, I'm a member of Thunder. We can talk about it anytime. There is a really big showing of Thunder at Memphis in May.

Welcome to Memphis! I think I also saw that you're doing IM Texas. So am I. Since you know where BikeWorld is, have you checked out their Tuesday night ride? It's a lot of fun and a nice group. If you see the green, Journeymen Racing jersey, that's my team. We usually have a pretty decent crowd show up every Tuesday along with Thunder, Marx and Bensdorf, 901 racing and others.

Sounds like everyone has given you great advice! If you run at all, the Memphis Runners Road Race Series that starts in July and goes through November is one of the best deals in running. 10 races from 5k to 13.1m, 2 of each distance all over town.

That Road Race Series sounds awesome. Thanks.  How's your IMTX training going?  The move and all the work my house needed when I arrived really jacked up my training.  Luckily, I've never been that good at these things anyway so no one will really notice

 

Still trying to figure out our new life here so I haven't made any group rides yet.  I'm headed to the shop next week though to have my fit rechecked, cables cut, and final tune up. 

Need to try and knock out a century ride this weekend and a long run as well.  What do you have?
