The Warrior Queens & The Preparation for Palm Springs

[Phong Ha]

Spartacus lay crumbled by the side of the road, just like the Denver Broncos in today's game.  The Warrior Queens relentless attack had taken their toll on the batter and beaten body of Spatacus.

Warrior Queens Nicole and Kym surged again, and slashed and hammered Spartacus and the A2 Team.  Never had Spartacus witness such relentless ferocity from these female warrioress.  The initial surge of Kym on Jamboree he had countered swiftly, and was able to reel her back.  Nicole too tried her hands beating the old body of Spartacus on Alton, and too he defended the honor of the Spartans.

 

But after 50 miles and still they attacked on SART, all he could do was watch them rode away.  Conflicted, he wondered how he would fare on the dessert roads of Palm Springs.

 

Prepare for probably the HARDEST ride for Spartacus this year... the Palms Prings Century.  Not having trained enough, it is gonna be a blood bath for this man.  But hey... at least the dinner night before will be fun :-)

 

PSC dinner info have been sent already.  Prepare for the GLORY.  No guts, no glory, go home!

 

Also welcome Tho to the VeloViet Family!

 

Out,

Spartacus

Hi,

 

First welcome Tin and Johnny to the VeloViet Family!  Tin has been riding with us for a while and is super strong on hills.  I guarantee there will be a shakeup in this year's KoM race, and FedEx and Anthony better train harder :-)  Johnny I have not met, but look forwards to meeting him.

 

Second I have attached Palm Springs info.  Most are doing the century, but I am seriously contemplating the 50 miler.  Today's 75 mile was painful!

This story is purely a work of fiction, but with some minor semblance of actual events, and is meant as entertainment and to pump up for the upcoming ride.  My apologies is you find it offensive as it was not meant to be.  Enjoy!

 

THE STORY...

 

T'was the Year of Our Lord 2014, peace had rule the land these past few years under the Good King Thomas.  Birds singing, flowers blooming, love is in the air, and many babies are coming... all in the Kingdom of the VeloViet flourished in this glorious time.

 

But in this tranquil space grows a heavy heavy heart.  Too many battles had he conquered with his Gladiators and Gladiatresses, King Thomas yearn for a quiet contemplace.  So when the opportune came, Thomas removed his VeloViet golden crown, leaving that which he thought a stable and peaceful land, and rode off into the good night.

 

END ACT ONE.... BEGIN ACT TWO...

 

The strike was hard and swift!  The blade left a gashing mark on the skin of the VeloViet Warrior and quickly seeps full of coarse blood!  The Barbarian grins wickedly and showed his decaying tooth.

 

It was again the follies and foolishness of Man that had caused this attrocity.  Restless and bored, the VeloViet Brotherhood turned upon each other to find the taste of battle, the taste of blood, and the taste of war.  Gladiators morphing into ugly Barbarian Hordes as they steal and rape the peaceful land.

 

Then there were some that stood and fight, but they too crumpled under the massive evilness and despair.  The latest casualty being Spatacus himself, a fine and mighty warrior for his golden years, but too he was last seen last week lying in a pool of excrement and blood by the concrete waste side of the battle war.

 

But yes there were a few successes.  It was reported that the VeloViet's "Divas" Battalion were the only ones who seemed unaffected, and are now fighting a good battle against the ugliness of men.  But the ladies are far and few among the sea of testosterone horde.

 

Hope begins to dim... the night lit up by fire pits as bodies burned by the terror of men.

 

END ACT TWO... BEGIN ACT THREE...

 

The lone rider stopped and inspect the desolate land above this dark Oakley shades.  He had journeyed far, from the Southern Land of Irvine, to see what was it about what he had heard... a kingdom, fine and mighty, ruled by a good king.

 

Compact and powerful in nature, the man carried only the few necessity for this trip.  But as he progress into the Northern Land, he saw the raveling of peace.  The man too had to fight to defend himselves.  He saw peaceful villagers, ravished by the Barbarian Horde, and he too lifted his sword to defend them.  Slowly... a new army is form.

 

END ACT THREE... BEGIN ACT FOUR...

The man and his army arrived at the Kingdom of the VeloViets.  The once gold color that adorned the golden palace now tarnished under the evil that had seeped inside.  But the palace is now empty as The Barbarian Horde had pulled out to reassembled in the sandy, dessert land of Palm Springs.  They are growing in strength and numbers, as the evil multiplies easily in this dry and hot land.

 

The man pushed open the palace doors, and strode purposefully into its darkened hallway.  He approached the throne and spies the golden VeloViet crown and massive VeloViet red cape.

 

On his body he had wore a thin white tunic that has the number 105 in the back, which had begin to fade out during the travel.  He removed this 105 tunic and let it slip to the floor.  The man draped his body with the warm, red cape.

 

He lifted the golden crown, and turned around to face the army.  There were those in the crowd that motion for the man to put the crown on.  He slowly and hesitantly lifted it above his head... and put it on.  The crowd went wild, for now come a new King.  There were those in the crowd that openly wept of this sight, for they had lost all hopes.

 

The New VeloViet King faces East and stared into the far away dessert land.  It will be in Palm Spring where he will face his first challenge as the Captain of this Army.  He knows this is where he must cut out the heart of the evil foolish and follies that dominated men, to gain control of the vast kingdom.

 

Now begins a new chapter in the history of the VeloViet, and it comes on the eve of a decade year.  Never before had we have a change of the throne holder, and the first epic ride will be the of the most interesting!

 

Prepare for an all out dessert assault!  Spartacus has cleaned up his excrement and blood, and hopes to see you there!

 

More info to come!

 

Out,

Spartacus

Looks like there is a small group (Tho, Tiffany, maybe Spartacus) doing the 55 mile route in Palm Springs.  If you are interested in PSC, but are not ready for a century, let me know.
