Have to start with a huge shout out to JOY RYDE🚴🏼♀️ for having the patience of a saint. We made it to our weekly dog bone Starbucks break and I was feeling absolutely miserable. Even sent a text to the family to put them on notice that they may need…

Group rides with Adobo Velo
The weekly Adobo Velo ride got pushed to Sunday, June 9th to support a joint ride with GVC. It was also going to be a taco and 50/50 raffle ride to boot! Unfortunately, I’d already planned on leaving town Sunday morning with Caleb Sprayberry as a member of his Race…
We use the analogy, sometimes you’re the hammer and other times the nail. Today I was the plywood getting smashed with a hammer and a nail driven into each leg. More details later after I can think. Oof, to say this ride was tough would be an understatement. On Friday…
A three day weekend means an extra day of riding, right? I’m pretty proud of myself for getting up and out of bed this morning to do this ride. I hadn’t committed to it in any way other than to myself. After Friday’s tough Lifetime ride and feeling awful for…
Oof that was tough. Heat set in again and I was struggling at stops 6 and 7 similar to Hemet. Thankfully some ice in the jersey and soaking the skull cap in ice water eventually did the trick and I was able to bring it home. More details later. When…

Absolutely gorgeous day for a ride. I don’t think we could have asked for better weather. Checked in with Joy late last night to see if she wanted to roll to the start early, and thankfully she did. I don’t know why but I didn’t sleep well last night and…
Finally the highly anticipated Giant 3 Shops ride is done and dusted. Started the day with a trip down to Inspirada to pick up Joy for some extra credit before the start of the official ride. The quick ride out to LVB and down St. Rose went pretty well. The…
Today was pretty brutal. While I can certainly say that anecdotally it’s nice to review the data and see it there as well. With Saturday’s rides being canceled I got with the little darling and arranged breakfast with her so I’d have Sunday free for a group ride. Thankfully, Robert…
This is another one that is somewhat of a blur. I know that I rode to the start solo, but I can’t remember why no one joined me. Once we were at the start we had to call an audible because the weather looked awful in Boulder City. Then even…
