Fwd: GPS Magnolia Trails

Stephen,
Good ride today! Here's a picture of the ride, and a Google Earth KMZ file if you want to zoom in. My GPS reported about 2800 feet of climbing - way too much, I 'd say.

Saturday MTB Ride

Saturday - Taking 8:00 AM Bus up to Nederland.  (Unless I get a ride up :-)

Planning on riding West Mag and Dot Trails.  Lots-O-Fun ride.

Mindi - Good Luck at Leadville 100!

 

Sunday - I am helping with the Boulder Road Race.  If you like climbing, this is the race for you!  Pre-Reg at http://dbcevents.com/

*Anybody know how to record Internet Streaming?  Olyimpic RR is on from 9:00 pm to 3:30 am Friday Night/Saturday Morning.  Women's Midnight to 3:30 Sunday 'morning'...    It will be chopped up, dramatic story added and editted and show during the day on NBC.

 

Junior National TT - Michael 4th - 1.5 seconds back...

...after 21 minutes is what separated the top four placings in the Junior Men 13-14 Time Trial yesterday.  Michael was fourth among them, for a podium placing!  His teammate Dean got 7th, only 22 seconds back.

In hindsight he of course was bemoaning the numerous places where he could have picked up a fraction of a second, but that's racing.  At least he knows he's among the strongest, and is looking to come out fighting for the crit today.  This is likely to come down to a sprint - usually a strength for Michael, though the size of the top two guys on yesterday's podium is somewhat scary and who knows how good their sprints may be.

Cheers,
Dan

Thursday Evening HC Ride

MTB ride - Tuesday night - laps at Betasso

I will be doing a MTB ride tomorrow evening (Tuesday). I will be at Eben G. Fine Park at 5:30, and will head up the Boulder Canyon Link trail and do 1-2 laps at Betasso Preserve. Pace and distance will be determined by the group (if there is a group), but I will probably be on a single speed, so pace will pretty mellow.

Fwd: saturday rides (REVISED!)

Ok. Looks like there are a couple of options:

Josh talked me into doing rondes des bergs. 8:00 but meet at Cafe
Sole. It is something like this:
http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/ronde-des-bergs

Mindi is still doing the old stage / lee hill ride because of time
constraints. If you're interested, be sure to email, otherwise she
might not go by vics at all.
