The Crew has had some excellent rides recently. The fastest ride so far this winter must to be our recent ride from the Mill Springs Battlefield to Cumberland Point. It was short and fast - exactly the kind of ride that I hate!!!!!!! Rick Rice set a fast pace and got away and the rest of the crew had to set up a pace line just to reel him back in!! It was a fantastic effort on Rick's part as he stayed away for several miles but also showed good organizational skills and strength on the part of the rest of us (in the community effort to chase Rick down!)
In terms of up and coming group rides - there will be a ride this Saturday (12/23) from The Vision Center (corner of Jarvis and East Mt Vernon in Somerset) up to the Sinking Valley Winery. It is a 38 mile ride (19 mile one-way) with only one significant climb (Grundy Road). The remainder of the course is "roller-coaster-ish". It will be an "out and back" ride with a wine-tasting interlude for anyone who so desires! Sunday is open but if anybody is interested I will be riding from Shopville School out 1003 - back to Stab on 1675 and back to the School on old 80 - about 40 miles.
I am riding every day so if you are interested in road racing for Cumberland Cycles- give me a call if you are interested - 606-215-8307 -
There are races every weekend starting very early this year in Indiana and Tennessee. It looks like the first race is on Feb 10 - 07 with a hilly road race up near Cincinnati - here is the flyer: http://www.godzulla.com/schabobele/schabobele_flyer.pdf
Merry Christmas to everybody!!!!! As always be sure to support Cumberland Cycles in any way you possibly can. I do believe that Mark can do gift certificates so you can support the cyclists in your family and also support the cyclists on your local racing team!!!!
