Ride Report - 09/14/09

Well, 'twas a small-ish yet select group that gathered @ Townsend Park yesterday for our 1st "post Killington / pre Death Valley" training ride. Must've been the lousy weather that kept folks home! (Not) We had a great ride - up and over the rolling hills of the Honey Creek / Pettis / Knapp loop south of the park and then up north as far as M-57 and back around. Not a super long ride but it was great to have a chance to get together, share tales of road snakes, plastic bags and newspapers under jerseys! (You had to be there!)

Roll Call:

and your faithful reporter.

We did about 46 miles, ate a lotta chips and salsa, cookies and such, basked in the sun and in general had a great time!

Thanks to all the VT riders that came out to motivate their DV-bound brethren!

Next week is the Harvest Tour hosted by Peggy Miller up in Leelanau, the Apple Cider Century is the week after that & stay tuned for up-to-the-minute info on upcoming traiing rides and team events!

Be well, ride lots and ........as.always.........thanks for all you do!
