See. I do ride... just at night


The Nite Owl / Noodle Salad Ride :-)

been a while...


So.. It's been awhile since I last blogged. Hmm.. been busy... even if it was taken it easy for a weekend. After Mtns of Misery, I stepped it up a bit in the riding. Somewhere along the line, I got my 10th cat 5 race and was able to successfully upgrade to cat 4. Yeah, Yeah, big cat 4... time to ride w/ the better handling riders... which I did.


A couple of weekends back, I rode in the Roanoke Cycling Criterium as part of the Commonwealth Games. When I say rode in, I really mean stayed w/ the pack for about half the race until soloing for a few laps before getting lapped off the course. Not too bad considering I haven't been doing any speedy training. Despite the head windy long stretch, I was still able to hold about 20 mph while soloing. Good times, good friends, good course, and good cycling! Thanks to Roanoke Cycling Organization for organizing the weekend omnium event! :-)
