So far this week we have had some very eventful rides. Monday we did the Navy Point Loop with the Big Boy taking out the Fried Twinklie Sprint for the first time in many months. Usually, either the Foxinator or Left Lane tweak their frames to come across the line for a prize that most of us would just as soon not have. However, those big Clydesdale boys love the Fried Twinkie. (I think probably anything fried...Oreo, Krispy Kreme, HoHos, pop tarts, etc.)
Tuesday saw the Clydesdales and the Kat herself (several times over a Shebeast Award winner) head out for about 30 miles across the UWF/Scenic Hills Loop. However, before we got halfway around the Big Boy had some tire problems and the Foxinator broke a spoke. So, we limped home with the Kat hounding us for the slow pace.
This morning saw the Prenti, Stephen "Manchild" Mills and the Clydesdale boys rolling toward The Hammock. (It's easier to get in the Hammock than it is to get out), under the most beautiful November weather this rider has ever seen! The Grocer had a flat before he left the garage, but other than that it was a fantastic ride! Clydesdale boys took first and second across the Hammock Sprint line in a very exciting sprint that saw the Young Jedis calling foul. The judges ignored that antics like a European Soccer player faking an injury...those dudes must take acting classes!
Three great rides so far this week and it is only Wednesday. Somebody pinch me I think I'm dreaming!
Tomorrow's Thanksgiving Ride will be at 9am at Firestone and Summit. This annual (parade pace) ride will use our favorite Figure 8 course or some variation thereon. It is a classic and one not to be missed...unless you are Coolio in Hawaii. ( I wonder if they have Krispy Kremes there?!) Hope to see you all in the morning!
Check out the Rides Calendar at the bottom of this Blogulation for the rides for the rest of this week. Remember, we are in the middle of the Eating Season so get out and ride to fend off the Dreaded Holiday 15!!! Come on!!!
See you out on the road,
Bob
