This week:

M,W, F: 6:00 am at "the Church"

T, TH;  6:00 am at the corner of Lester River Rd & Superior

Well Done Peter! (and thanks to Joe)

A lovely morning at the start; after the prerequisite tire changing exercise Joe, Peter, and I made our way up Jean Duluth, out Normanna, then Pequaywan Lakes to Fox Farm (where Joe had to bail). Peter had mounted a set of cross tires on the Roubaix and despite yesterday's rain, the gravel was in great shape.



Joe - thanks for the nice pace line work on the way out and the use of your pump.....
Peter - thanks for being willing to get off the pavement!

4 Horsemen

The good thing about riding with these 4 guys

It was kinda like this for me

I could just sit back and relax

Until of course

the inevitable puncture

Somehow, we made it to the gravel

(TIM . . .  YOUR BIKE WILL BE JUST FINE!)

Where we quickly realized

Sharp dress runs in the family!

One Fine Day ( or: the Calm Before the Storm)

Just Pics (almost)!

Mr Whistle

It's always great to have the ladies out

Let's face it boys . . . they are way nicer to look at . . .

It's always good to see Wayne

as for Tim . . .

The astute reader will recall "All about Tim!"

As the temperatures rise, Wayne needs to discard some clothes

While on the subject of clothes . . . 

Would someone please explain to me . . .

How this Raleigh jersey goes with the Nature Valley shorts?

This is some kit choice!

(until we realize the Raleigh jersey is a team jersey from the Coor's Classic . . . worn by Deb during the race . . . 

She gets a fashion bye . . .)

What's that?

Allen is so strong, he beats us even while injured

This was the calm before the storm . . .

From this point forward . . . I was "a little busy" 

A personal THANK YOU to 

Deb, Allen and Tim . . .

For getting me from the Mocha Moose,

 to Lester River

in under 40 minutes . . . 

I made it to the party on time!

* Duly Noted:

It is unclear, how at 5:30 am, Russ is able to coordinate his outfit

For fashion advice; kindly phone: 218.428.????

Outrun the bear

Rich Tried to climb this rock to outrun the bear .  .  .

Until he remembered, he only had to outrun Russ . . . 

Get in Line Boy . . .

or (Mis)Adventure  . . . take 3

It's gonna be a great day to ride to Hugo's

Yeah . . . but TOAST . . . they don't have TOAST

Just eat your toast . . . let's go . . .

Yeah . . . OK, maybe only 7 seconds

We managed to cross the road before Steve flats

"I'm glad I never flat . . ."

OK already  . . .  OK

"Hugo," our new mascot

All seven of us made it to Hugo's

and Steve managed to keep air in his tires

Arriving at Patti's

We pick up Declan, who wonders:

"Just What is that thing comin' out of Russ' head?"

Shanie suspects Jim might have one too . . .

"I wish the publisher of this blog would get serious, 

and just get back to work"

"I agree . . . Let's ride . . . "

Remember:  Always follow the rules of the road, except when you

aren't supposed to.  It is left to you to figure out where, and when
