COLNAGO

Riders,

Riderzinni and myself are thinking of getting new carbon bikes. Below are the details of what we are looking at; we would appreicate comments and suggested changes to this:


Colnago Cristallo frame
Campy Record groupset
FSA SLK carbon handlebar
Fulcrum Racing 1 wheels
Vittoria Evo CX tyres
Campy Record seatpost
Selle Italia SLR carbon saddle
Look Keo carbon pedals


I am not sure how fast we will go, but with the ranch outfit and these bikes we will certainly look the part ;-)

Cheers
Riderchiche

Wed - spin am
Thur - run pm (followed by desk dinner/drinks/club)
Fri - nothing (the spin am dis not happen due to the results of the prior night)

Today is off again though I may go to the pool to do some drills I was told by the swimming instructor...

I have to admit that I am not following the diet as good as I should but I am feeling better...hopefully I'll be fit enough when the summer comes!

Enjoy!

Turville Bootie Ride



Ridermama and Riderturbo had a brisk 2007 season opener ride on Sunday in Turville. Thermal socks and booties kept our tootsies toasty over a gentle tempo ride that kept heart rates low and the scenery pleasant. Our black lab Jake guarded the car after a romp up to the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang windmill and we chomped on seeds, fruit and skimmed-milk afterward for a complete carb/protein recovery. Its lookin' good for 2007 on the Ranch.

riders on valentines day



As the rest of the numbnuts were buying flowers and fancy dan dinners for their lady friends - 4 hardcore ranch cyclists were evaluating their lactic acid thresholds with Dr. Andy Reid. They win. RiderCali, RiderTurbo, RiderPitts, and Londons newest millionaire - RiderCrespo.

the ladies respond to riders


ridereazyE finds himself up to no good post a back to back spin class at the reebok club - riderpitts and ridereasyE scoffed at the first hour class - and doubled it up with another hour - as the rest of the class fixed their hair and towelled off.
