Aw, come on! It is only one lap! And you can't see how high the hill ahead of you is anyway, so you don't feel it, right?

You're right! I didn't notice! :) Super fun ride - some nice long extended climbs. Had to relax and get out of mtn biking short power climb mode into "steady as she goes" mode. Took a bit for the legs to cooperate. Nothing too techy in the singletrack - just what the doctor ordered with...

http://www.espraces.com/ It's in my back yard, baby! :D

The hand is starting to return to regular size. I'm going to give it a try on the bike tomorrow (road). Maybe some easy singletrack Mon or Tues. Let's just plan on seeing each other at Walnut Mtn, huh? :)

Hey RC - With a finish tomorrow and some paydirt points, you may be able to pull out 3rd in the series. I can't freakin' believe it, but I am not racing tomorrow. I was imitating Superman on a totally non-tech downhill at Blue on Tues. Really - hard-packed dirt at the beginning of...

Chris has been talking about converting his hardtail to SS again. If you PROMISE I will have fun (rather than the racing spirit will overtake me), then I too would have to rangle up a SS.

LOL!!! Nice to see you in the preride! Man, I am sore today, esp. the upper body (and the areas of carnage from my endo)!

I like that name. It certainly describes how I felt!

Plan? Plan? I have no plan!! Aaaahhhh!! :) Here's a plan: race expert and have the trail for myself.... way in the back! That is until the pros catch up!

Gerilynn - Wait a minute... bikereg has you listed as a man! Did Mixmasta do that? I was laying in bed thinking about all the traffic in the singletrack. It was great when it was just Shasta and me. On Sunday, oh boy! Am I excited, or am I scared? What is this feeling? Is there an...

IN, preregistered. Rode it yesterday. Holy cow, that was fun! It is a really hard and fun challenge, but do I have to step it up to race pace? That could lead to some hurting!! I guess the #1 goal is to stay upright! Will worry about the rest if I have the opportunity. Someone sent...

another note About Wilson State Park - The park itself is fabulous! It turned out to be a great day. My daughter was playing in puddles, then playing with the leaky hose on the bike wash, then the sand in the horseshoe pits, then back to the hose, etc. There was a great pavilion, BBQs...

From what I recall, the property was sold (or in the process of being sold) a couple years back. That lead the Hudson Valley Tri club to find a new home. I went searching and found a website against some of the development, for those interested... http://friendsofwilliamslake.org/

Free T-shirt Free T-shirt to the first 75 preregistered - which ends tonight. I love mtn biking T-shirts. I can pretend to be tough!

I absolutely recommend Lake winter boots! We (hubby and I) bought some last year, after still freezing with the booties. We use for both mtn biking and road riding. My feet are NEVER cold, even if the puddles are frozen. Throw in some wool socks, and you could ride forever!!!

This is totally a girl answer - but I love to make cards and scrapbooks. Can't get enough, so I teach classes, sell my wares, etc. I think it is weird but cool to get all muddy and bloody out on the trail, wash up, and make something pretty. :) Well, that's my 'opposite of biking'...

Hey, you keeping tabs on me?? :) I didn't know if anyone wanted to hear a race report from Landmine. It was 26 miles of greasy root and rock garden. And I mean extended rock gardens. Luckily, it was relatively flat, so I could work on the bike handling skills without too much fear of...

I know Jorbafest is going on this Sat (hope you guys don't get rained out - so you can come up on Sunday! Looks ok so far). Any Jersey folks coming up this way for the Wilson Park installment of the series on Sunday? This is the place the Hudson Valley Tri Club trains and races since...

Ekrem's race description is the BEST!!!! LOL!

No thanks! As soon as I have to break out the butt butter, I'm out!
