Its coming. The good stuff. Sun and heat. No doubt though followed by a few more days of cold, but until then, the next chunk of good weather is just around the corner.
In the meantime, trying to cope with the bad stuff [rain/cold]. A few members of the Maple Leaf Cycling Club were out doing a hill interval session at Malden [monotonous = yes, payoff = big]. Good to see others coping.
Looking for racing plans this weekend? Check out the final Quick Release Spring Training Series in Ann Arbor on Sunday. Afterwards is a small party [meaning free food/drink] to celebrate race organizer Paul Alman and his 25 years of running these early season events.
Tidbit: The Godfather of Michigan cycling, Dybo, has participated in all 25 years of the STS.
Below is a brief rundown on the Amstel Gold Race in a series of 'How the Race was Won' [initial thoughts were that these were lame, but they have a quirky charm].

What have Demi Vollering and Lenny Martinez got in common? One thing is

You stinky B*%$^!!!
40% of the time, it rains everytime. Got caught in the rain several times despite a 40% chance of precip. given by the weathernetwork, passed a few riders I didn't know and chalked it up to the Lance/Nick-effect in the local boom of riders.
ReplyDeleteAnybody make it over to the final Spring Race?
I prefer Nick/Lance effect but we thank you anyway.
