Wow, what a great day we had on the bike with Team in Training yesterday. Today was our first time out with "pace" teams. It was fun meeting more new friends from the TNT family and getting a chance to ride and talk with folks.
Our ride took us on a 20 mile tour of Danville that included a jaunt up Bollinger Canyon Road to Las Trampas. We could not have asked for better weather. The only choice to be made was weather to put sleeves/vest on or not.
Since this was our first foray out as team we are still trying find our best team pace, but we will figure it out. Once we hit our stride we will make great time in our team paceline. Coach Cliff provided great advice and we all had a great time on the bike riding for an important cause - eradication of blood cancers.
To top it all off, a large number of us met afterwards for pizza at Mountain Mike's. In a fit of forgetfulness, we all (well, at least those of us at the 'Man's Table') ate way too much of the wrong food. Still, I only saw smiles on the faces.
As always, I can't wait go out and ride some more with my teammates. Next week is our our 'Buddy Ride' followed a week later by Team #3 in Sunol.
Go Team!!!!
