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.

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

A cold morning of “wambling”(the word of the day) up and down the hills on the Friday Ride!  2 chains dropped, no flats, don’t know if Hoss made the shot.  I guess he would have said something if he did.  This info is up as soon as I get a minute..  others can pitch in.  Jay has done it.  Anyone else want to help out???  Chalmers??

My phone broke so hopefully I’ll get the photo’s from the last two fridays off when I get a new one.  Schlomy was in town today!  Good to see him visiting on the ride.  Excitement for today was Vlad got the light on Indian School and dissappeared ahead up hill one, and Chuck got a flat.  The sprint started at Curry because of a red light.  Justin got away and stayed out front till the end.
