General Discussion

Once again, I have signed up to do the Pennsylvania Perimeter Ride Against Cancer (or PPRAC, if you don't know what it is click here to check it out), and so once again I am here to solicit donations.

Hello everyone. I just signed up and got set up with an account here. I am pretty excited to start participating in some rides, and I would love to get involved and help out with some races or other initiatives to get to meet people. I live in Bethlehem, what would be a good first event to come to? Thanks!

looks like there was a fire up on Sth. Mtn. today.

Day one:
Met up with the boys for the JT ride on Sunday. I was actually nervous about riding with these guys. Many of them I had not ridden with before and was unsure weather I could hang or not. Heading up the Switchback to Summit Hill I could tell the pace was going to be just a bit speedier than I am used to (my thought - Suck it up Muto, don't puss out). But after a few short breaks early I felt ready.

my saturday started with spreading some mysterious chemicals on lawns for 8 hours. yummy. this was killing me cause it was so nice out . hauled ass home and got in a ride which ended up to be one of my nicest local rides in a while.

I headed down to VA this weekend to try my first 13 hour Solo race. Hung, with Jamie, Ted and Dean, as well as a big crew from Bike Line and the Spot crew, I saw the Carters on the start line as well as topher and company I went back and forth with Jamie, topher and some other dude that hangs with topher for a few laps, got a little help with my wheel from Austin but I didn' get a chance to link up with Mike C.

A big thanks to Fat marc for hooking me up with a coke when I needed it, It totally turned my race around.

I have noting but time on my hands, the sun is shining, birds are chirping and the air is filled with the fresh smell of cow shit, and the temps are rising. This would be a a great to day to get out and ride all day long.

If the wind is all we get for the next 2 or 3 days we could be OK for riding late in the week. Don'tcha think?

What would be the best bet? My guess is anything facing the NW winds - Sals, SM Emmaus?

well, i dont' hide it but i do ride other than mtn bike and it simply b/c versatility is essential with kids/jobs/stink eyed significant others so i do road. After watching a few friday nights i always wondered what it was like to going around the concrete oval. so i jumped in the water w/o looking. i bought an entry level track bike and went for it.

Yeah, I am sitting here in my living room drinking a few beers thinking about registering for the Leesburg bakers dozen. This will be the longest day in the saddle for me, but only by a few hours.

I feel sort of guilty paying the 90 dollar entry fee and driving 3 hours to race when I dont have a job......but I sit here thinking-I am probably at my strongest since I started riding-you gotta let the dogs Run!
