Team 10 Gathering Spot

[Judd]

Team 10,

The Strava club is up at: https://www.strava.com/clubs/250625

Please make sure that you join the Strava club as soon as possible so I can make sure that everyone is accounted for. Here’s our team members:

Boomer2U
camiller
eoarl
FIX_BKS
Judd
komorebi
laurenist
pdubs
QuikAF77
fxbooks
sunyata

We also need a super sweet team name. Any suggestions?

Oh, right, introductions.

When I’m not hawking zipper pulls, you can find me commuting between Alexandria and downtown DC, attending coffee club 3-4 times a week, or making fun of Judd’s obsession with Hains Point laps. I suppose I should stop doing that last one, now that his HP laps are earning points for the team. No, who am I kidding? I’m still going to give Judd grief about that. He’s otherwise an enthusiastic — or should I say tenacious? — instigator of group rides and has successfully bamboozled me into riding further than I thought possible, qualities which should make him a good team captain.

This is my third Freezing Saddles. My previous teams finished ninth and second, so clearly there’s only one place for this upward progression to go.

I enjoy route planning, and I intend to submit at least one entry for this year’s [URL=”[link: http://bikearlingtonforum.com/showthread.php?11412-Strava-art-pointless-prize%5D”%5DStrava art pointless prize[/URL]. You all are invited to do the art ride with me whenever I get around to finishing the route design.

Thanks for sharing Leo. Anyone is welcome to ride with Team 15. The more the merrier. And of course, there will be one or more Hains Points laps. Tour buses will be temporarily prohibited from entering.

hmm… apparently can’t edit the title. Come one, come all.

Sweet, I’m in. Thanks for the invite.

Your Team Captain asked me to pass along the message that tomorrow, Saturday Jan 21st, will be an official team rest day. Enjoy your day off, catch up on some sleep, have some coffee together, read a cycling magazine, etc.

Nice try Bob! What Bob meant to say is that Saturday is a mandatory Century day. Looking forward to us increase the 1st place lead over Team 15 by an additional 1100 points.

I think team 10 is cheating. Take off, eh, you hosers!!!

In all seriousness, nice mileage today folks. Making it tough for us mere mortals to keep up with you. Definitely going to have to step up our game

I’ve hired several bike stunt doubles and turned over the Garmin.

The real Juddler Lumberden had a psychotic break and his alter ego has been furiously pedaling around the country forming underground cycling clubs for well over a year now.

Looks like rain tomorrow. Be safe and stay indoors. Good day for trainer miles.

The first rule of Bike Club is that you don’t talk about Bike Club.

Speaking of Power of 10… are you going to post a 2017 Power of 10? I just did the January century and liked having a thread to post it in.
