Nice day for a ride

The journey to the hills was pretty and uneventful, which in the beginning of the year is a good thing. It felt good to "stretch our legs a little" and push up some hills, including, CR10, Corkscrew and a couple on 287 that always sneak up on you. Nice chat as we rode and nice pace with plenty of stops, perfect for a group ride.

3/6 and 3/7 rides

Well the snow has subsided and now it is time to get out of the basement and ride. Saturday starting at NOON from the Marysville courthouse. This is an everybody come ride and knock the rust off. Probably about 30 miles at 15-18, depends on the usual factors.

Sunday we will start at the courthouse at 1pm and go as far as possible as fast as possible. I am sure we will make a hill or two or more and a little sprint action is always a good thing.

Come out, have fun, ride and then ride hard.

Going to do a ride on Saturday 1/23. We will start in Middleburg with FIP at 11:30ish. We are planning on about 45 miles. In the hills so wind will not be a big factor.

Happy Holidays and NYD Ride

I hope everyone got at least a little "bike schwag" for Christmas. I received 2 items. A new helmet(white) and a signed copy of the new Lance book(Comeback 2.0). My niece lives in Tuscon and stood in line for 3 hours at the Border's signing there. Pretty cool.
The New Year's Day ride route is determined and here it is http://www.mapmyride.com/route/us/oh/marysville/419126201739054879

FIP is 10am. Cold, snow, wind, and all the other element of bad weather should make this pretty interesting. Dress warm and to keep yourself dry. I am planning on a beverage at Lucky's to warm-up a little after.

Merry Christmas everyone. Enjoy the sights, sounds, and family even more this time of year.
The best part...the days are GETTING LONGER!!!! We made it to the dark side and now we are headed back to longer daylight hours. Soon we will be riding after work OUTSIDE!

New Years Day Ride

One item that was brought up at Rooster's that I forgot to mention was to have a New Year's Day ride. Keep that on your calendar and let's have some fun with it.

More Cyclebabble 12/2 @ Roosters in Marysville

Come out and talk cycling or what ever at Rooster's in Marysville. AOS @ 6pm

Cyclebabble

Come and talk bikes, routes, cross, training, goals, ideas, jerseys, trips, and everything cycling at Buffalo Wild Wings, Avery Rd in Dublin @ 6pm

Roads less traveled.

Thursday was suppose to be sunny and 70. What happened? Oh well, had a good ride anyways. We found a few roads that none of us had ever been on and one road that we will never make that mistake again, with out a minimum of a cross bike and most likely nobbi tires. 3000+ feet of climbing in 50 miles and plenty of cold and wind.
Get out to "Uncle Steve's" Saturday and watch cyclocross action. Bring a camera, the costumes will be a hoot. Race is at 18600 Barker Rd Marysville, OH 43040-9206. Barker is off of Raymond Rd at the nursery.

Thursday Ride @ 3pm

Thursday is suppose to be a very nice day so a group of us are planning a ride. We will leave Middleburg at 3pm and head towards Zanesfield to pick up others at 4pm. Here is the map...

Sunday 10/18 Ride

This weeks ride is a nice 40 miler out of Middleburg with a couple different hills and sprints. We should be in full color and we should be able to see alot from some of the vistas we will be riding by. Weather will be chilly but not unbearable.

10/11 Ride...can you say hills!

OK. While the weather is decent and we still are in some sort of shape we need more hills, so I was told. This is what I came up with, starting in Middleburg and just a short 41 miles. FIP 2pm
There is a sprint back into Middleburg, but not exactly sure where it is.

Wed. 9/30 Ride

Looking at the forecast, Wednesday will be the best day to ride this week...until Sunday. Looking at getting out a little early and then maybe catch up and ride with the 6pm group at the courthouse. Looking at FIP about 4:30-4:45 for a quick out and back to the courthouse. Let me know if interested.

Sunday 9/27

Yes! we are riding...you will not melt! Bring a camera, colors are getting good.

Sunday 9/27 Ride 10am

http://www.mapmyride.com/route/us/oh/marysville/779125380668051654
has 9 sprints and 3 KOM in 65 miles. Again, we regroup after sprints and KOMs.
