Keen Team 15 – BAFS2018 thread

[reji]

Hey team 15! It was great to meet some of you at last night’s happy hour and I’m looking forward to some fun rides!

First of all, join our Strava club https://www.strava.com/clubs/335250

Next, introduce yourself here!

I’m Robyne, your captain. Be nice to me, this is my 3rd BAFS, but my 1st time being a captain. Fortunately, I’ve met some cool folks through this forum and have some good examples from which to lead!

I live in Falls Church and commute to Alexandria daily. I’ll set up some fun rides on the weekends and some weekday happy hours too.

Let’s ride!

Hey all! I’m Steph W on strava… I couldn’t make the happy hour last night, but looking forward to meeting everyone and getting out for some rides!

Hello team. I’m George but most people call me GK. This is my first BAFS! I live in the Springfield area and have a pretty flexible schedule so I’m ready to meet for any group rides. Nice meeting the few team members at happy hour last night. Let’s ride together soon!

Hi Team 15! So nice to meet you (virtually.) I couldn’t make the HH last night as my daughter came down with the cruddy head & chest cold that is going around. My name is Elizabeth …here in Bike Arlington it’s elizsnyder (last name Snyder) on Strava I am “Elizabeth I Like Wheels”. I live in north Arlington and commute to Rosslyn. Can’t wait to meet everyone! I did 15 miles this morning in honor of team 15! :p my commute is usually around 4.7 miles unless I go the long way…

Hi Team 15! My name is Kurt. I already know several of you as this is my 3rd Freezing Saddles, and I’m a regular at the Hump Day Coffee Club at Best Buns in Shirlington. I ride a recumbent, mostly commuting between the Tysons Corner area and L’Enfant Plaza, and on weekends I often take on every recumbent rider’s nemesis: hill climbing. I hope to get to know the rest of you at coffee, happy hour, or group rides.

But first, a moment of silence for reji’s faithful steed, Pinky, who met an untimely demise this morning under the wheels of a cement truck. Fortunately, our Captain was relatively unscathed.

Glad she is okay! Hopefully the driver stopped. Man, that sucks.

Hello Team 15! I am the second Robin on the team and it was good to meet some of you on Wednesday night. This is my first FS so I’m trying to learn quickly to keep up. Hope to see you on a ride soon! Robin (Robbie Rob)

Hmmm, something about celebrating a birthday or some other such BS reason. [emoji41] Play on, young Jedi. Robyne will be a good captain and you’ll have a great time with this team. But Team 8 will crush it!!!

Love,
Your friends at BAFS2018 Team 8

I’m glad Reji is ok and I hope she ordered the Renegade Escapade as a replacement. I hear Ultegra bikes are crush-proof.
