BAFS 2016 Team 13 Official Thread

[Powerful Pete]

Dear esteemed fellow velocipede users, this is the official thread for the BAFS 2016 Team 13 – official name to be decided in a highly participatory fashion hopefully involving fermented and/or caffeinated beverages in copious quantities. 😎

As per Sunyata (team making czar) and her minions, the elite members of this unbelievably great team are:

barbielwc
beaversd
bruzasd
culery
FFX_Hinterlands
Henry
ian74
Judd
LeprosyStudyGroup
Powerful Pete
rwhiffen
Teresa A
HancockBS

A few housekeeping thingamajigs:

1. Please join the Strava Club for Team 13: http://www.strava.com/clubs/175419

2. Please double-check that you have a functioning Strava account and have authorized the BAFS website to access your rides/information – drop me a line and we’ll figure it out if you have any questions (I am clueless in these matters but will appeal to others and pretend to be useful).

3. Please do “check in” on this thread once you have signed on the team, that way I will be able to confirm to our BAFS/forum overlords that we are all “on board”

4. If you are willing, please pm me your email address – this will simply make it easier to reach out to folks in planning rides and get-togethers – if you do not want to share this information, that’s fine of course (the info shall not be sold or used for marketing purposes, unless someone offers me enough money to purchase a Campagnolo Super Record EPS groupset – then all bets are off).

5. GET OUT AND RIDE. Remember if at all possible to at least sleaze daily.

6. Begin thinking (or don’t think at all and propose anyway) of a name for our most awesomest bestest super duper team.

7. Encourage your riding buddies who are not on our team to save their energy and not ride. It’s better for their health.

8. Please use this thread to organize rides, encourage other team members, brag about how awesome we are and make fun of the other teams.

9. Always encourage Boomer to look after his health and not ride.

HAVE FUN! RiDE SAFELY!

Thank you! Your right I was surprised I was over 200 last week. Even on a week I did a century I’ve never been that high. Great team keep up the good work!

[barbielwc]

Anyone planning on joining in at the Last Night Hains Point Party?

[LeprosyStudyGroup]

I’m thinking of doing some laps in the afternoon/evening if the weather isn’t too nasty, but probably not staying past sunset in any case.

*Ian isn’t gonna be around, and Judd might be sick? Not sure.

[bruzasd]

I’ll probably swing by for a few laps late afternoon early evening as well.

By the way – we’re up to 4th place, for now

[Judd]

I will be at the Hains Point party. Fitting that the forecast is calling for snow in the evening. I’ll also likely do a couple of HP laps tomorrow to help solidify the title of Hains Point He-Man Awesome Champs of Riding in Circles.

Not sick – took the day off to ride a century. We’re 4th place now!

[LeprosyStudyGroup]

Yeah I just saw that. Awesome! I really don’t want to slog 20+ miles to HP and back in freezing rain so I really am hoping it gets cold enough.

[bruzasd]

Last day, everyone!!

If the weather has you down and you’re considering not riding, please get out and at least do a sleaze. We’re down to the wire on keeping 4th place in the team standings and it could come down to an 11 point swing in participation.

Great riding (virtually) with all of you these past 79 days!
