Every Fricken Friday Morning – PV Hills
New Kits out this morning!! Looked frickin awesome as we all rode out today. Brian from V7 was out taking photo’s of the new kits. Can we say that the paparizzi where after us in our new kits??? A group of about 8 broke away on the way back and Justin cleaned our clocks on the sprint.

What a gorgeous day for a ride! Great turn out and no crashes so all is good.
There was talk of Justin making a run at the Triple Crown so a couple riders, Al and GC, were sent up the road early. Justin, Joe and others chased and for a moment it looked like they caught Al and GC but it was Gardner and Ben-Horin. So Justin and Joe went off again but it wasn’t enough. Al and GC held the gap with GC taking Hill 1 so the Triple Crown was safe.
On the return trip the group had to stop at the light at Mill/Curry. Justin had the timing right and nailed it the moment the light changed. He grabbed a huge lead and held everyone off taking the sprint.
Hill 1 – GC
The Castle – Joe D.
Hill 3 – Justin
Hill 4 – RJ

Here’s the question of the day. How warm does it have to get before Kocher comes out of hibernation?
Happy Valentines Day! Great turn out on a relatively warm morning.
There was a beautiful moon setting as we rolled down Oak. But by the time we hit 56th St. somebody poured on the gas splitting the group at Thomas (I think it was Thomas) leaving a smaller group contesting for Climb 1.
A road closed sign and tons of sand on the Castle climb and workers repairing the road atop Climb 4 provided some unusual obstacles.
Hoss missed the shot.
Climb 1 – Vlad
The Castle – Justin
Climb 3 – Joe D???
Climb 4 – A A Ron
Sprint – Chalmers
It wasn’t a good day for the birthday boys RJ and Jay. Jay had a tire blow out on climb 1 that sounded like a shotgun went off. Fortunately it was on the ascent and not the descent which would have been disastrous.
Then RJ threw a chain on climb 4. The chain got jammed between the crank and the bottom bracket and Mike had to muscle it out.
Joe took the first three hills but Clint wouldn’t give him the fourth. Vlad took off for the sprint at Curry but couldn’t hold off the charge as GC took the sprint off RJ’s wheel.
Beautiful morning for a ride.
Climb 1 – Joe
