Looks like the weather will be good. Who's in for a 5:30 roll out?

[gcdavid]

I'll be there.

[Cort Cramer]

In.

[PaulCurtis]

How hard are you guys going to be riding?

[reeegan]

I need to stop sucking before I show up here again!

[gcdavid]

Brad - bring my lights

Andrew - you won't stop sucking until you start training. So show up

Paul - I don't think the pace will be a problem for you

[PaulCurtis]

I guess we'll just have to see. I will try to make it but don't wait for me.

Paul

[JimmE]

Hoping to get out of work in time to make it.

I want to thank all you hammerheads that drove the pace on last night - that was a really tough ride. I wasn't sure if I was going to be ready to race after taking some time off, but after last night I think I can safely say that I'll be able to hold my own in a race.

[Cort Cramer]

I agree Alan. Neil, thanks for the pain! I joked with the other guys yesterday that I would hate to see you "in shape!" You put the hurt on us last night.

[Neil]

Alan- You're definitely in racing shape. You were glued to Cort's wheel when he accelerated on those climbs.
Cort- You didn't looked pained as you passed me on the hills.

Good riding with you guys last night.

[reeegan]

Glad I didn't show up! Got 35 miles in by myself. I'll be back at some point. Working the 7am-10pm shift isn't leaving much room for training these days.

[JimmE]

OH Yeah!!!

70 miles round trip

At least 1100 ft of climbing

I was cooked when I got home

[Cort Cramer]

Jim,

1100 or 11000ft? I like Gary's numbers more!

[gcdavid]

For you smartass*s out there, the Garmin had total ascent feet of 3252 for the Stow loop. Don't know what other people have recorded. Let's say somewhere in the neighborhood of 2500-3000 feet.
