Yesterday was my first chance to ride with some the other Lake Effect guys in '09. I'm not sure how far we road as a group. There were 7 of us total. Mike V, Bill and Tony Marut, Rudy and Robert Sroka, Matt Weeks and myself. Tony and Robert are the youngest on the team...and they rock! Its so great to see young blood out there having fun on a bike and challengeing themselves and us...well, ok, the older guys.
I ended up with 67 miles on the day, just under 4 hrs. We only averaged 16.5 mph for the ride. Buts its great saddle time. We got to share some stories and just get to know each other which is nice. Like now I know Matt has a problem having to do with blood and his chamois. I won't go into detail here...but its not pretty. I also didn't know that Matt raced mountain bikes. We got to hear how Rudy met Paul Martin...It all goes towards helping us ride better together when the season comes. I can't wait to start racing..but I'm still working on getting down to race weight. I'll be there..hopefully sooner than later!
Thanks to Bill Marut for the picture...thus he's not in it. But going left to right we have Mike V. Robert Sroka, Tony Marut, me, Rudy Sroke and Matt Weeks peaking his around the back of Rudy.
