Sat Mar 30th

[Greg LaDoe]

All,

See my earlier conversation on upcoming rides. Some good dialog. My
question here is on this Saturday (30 Mar). I posted an 80 miler from
Willis (Kroger) with 7:30 am depart. Wanted to see who's interested?

So far have seen nothing....should be a good route at a decent but not
ridiculous pace. Weather forecast is a bit uncertain....

Please let me know by Friday AM if you're planning on joining (or
not).

Greg,  I returned from Peru on Monday, now I am off to California on Sat till Tuesday.  My son was accepted at Univ of Cal.at Irvine. for the Master Program on Urban Planning.  We booked this trip before he was accepted into the Columbia Univ. Arch. Master Program.  So we are going out there to see my second son.  So, I have not been riding at all.  After I return, I will work to get back in shape.  I will not be riding any long rides with you guys until I am in shape. 

Be safe.

Jesse

Hi Greg,

If you ride on Saturday, I would like to ride.

Ciao,

Hey Guys,

Not sure if I'm going to ride this weekend or not. I pulled my lower back last weekend and still recovering but still I want to ride. Food for thought, I ride with 2 other guys each Saturday from Bear Branch school just North of Woodlands parkway on FM-2978. We depart at 8:00 and head to Richards and back via backroads. The route is 80 miles and we usually average about 20 between the 3 of us depending on winds conditions, sometimes faster and sometimes not. If nobody has any better ideas why not join us. Last week 2 of us, Jeff and I, (Jeff is an ironman) averaged about 21 on the corse. Not sure if that's up to your speed but considering the wind we were punished. If you haven't come up with anything better by then it could be a good ride.

Just food for thought.

Sarge, aka Steve

I am riding in the Ronde van Vlaanderen this weekend in Belgium (240k).  I am trying to upload photos and keep a blog--it is under construction at this time, but I will post it shortly.

 

Have fun & be safe this weekend in your cycling adventures.

All,

Steve - thanks for the suggestion! Pace sounds perfect. By Jeff...is
that Jeff Jordan? Ridden with him a number of times good guy to ride
with. Any chance for a bit earlier start (7:45am)??

Mike, Bill - what do you think? would be good to join them...We could
meet at the Exxon at Woodlands Pky/2978 at say just before 7:30... and
ride that way, meeting them at Bear Branch school (5-10 mins from
Exxon to Bear Brach)....

Greg

[Bill Weidlein]

I'm ok with this plan...one question..will everyone be on a road style bike?

[Spillar, Steve]

Nope, Jeff Warner.

He did the ironman a couple of years ago and afterwards said he would never do that again..HA! As far as an earlier start I doubt it, it's mandatory for Jeff to always be late, (sorry Jeff). Depending on which route we decide to take to Richards the ride usually finishes between 75 to 85 miles.

Greg,

Should we plan to leave the Exxon at 7:45?

Thanks,

Hey Guys,

Sorry for the late notice but due to a home project I'm in the middle of I'm not going to be able to ride tomorrow. The boss has said she wanted it finished this weekend so I'm already committed.

Dave however still is planning on riding tomorrow from Bear Branch school and wants to hook-up with you guys. I've copied him onto this email. He said he would be ready  wheels rolling at 8:00 sharp from Bear Branch school.

See you guys next week.

Sarge, aka Steve.

Steve-no sign of you buddy Dave. We were in front of Bear Branch on 2978 for 15 mins working on a mechanical till 8:10.

4 of us (Mike A, Bill W. and Kelly Herndon) had a super 77 miler. Nearly 20.5 mph ave, everyone rode well. Super day with lots of riders out between regulars, MS 150 preppers and Tri riders looking at Ironman route. Must of been 30 riders at Richards!

Looking to do Coldspring hill repeats next Sat....let know if interested!

Greg

[Spillar, Steve]

Hey Greg,

Yea I saw Dave about 4:00 this afternoon and asked him how the ride went. He said he overslept so I apologize if any inconvenience was passed along. Believe me this isn't the norm. I will definitely ride next weekend providing the weather doesn't give us a wet one. I've been off the bike for 2 weeks now and I don't want my riding ability to fall below norm.

I'm glad you guys had a good ride.

Sarge

Count me in for next Saturday, Greg. I'm a glutton for punishment...I was
there this morning doing hill repeats...surprisingly, I only came across one
other rider...also doing hill repeats in prep for the May 4th road race...he
was from Katy!

Congrats to Bill W for the big fitness gains from training at the VR Cycling Studio.  It really showed on the bike on Sat.
