    Saw that guy pull the plug at RS3. Immediately inspired me & Culimerc to get back on the bike and get moving. (DK, that’s the jersey I was talking about.)

    So the wife says if I do this she’s going on a bender for an entire weekend. I’m not really sure of the relationship between these two activities.

    Both sound like fun to me!

    Kill Bill + Total 200 + Freezing Saddles + __?___ = Grand Slam of Local Endurance Biking for the Year. If you complete all 4 you get a bronzed banana.

    Not me! I technically didn’t do Freezing Saddles, I just showed up at the happy hour and gave out swag.

    And instead of Kill Bill, I rode 300 miles of Blue Ridge Mountains that weekend.

    I did do Diabolical Double though…

    I think I will be ending the epic rides with T200 this year, given impending second child, but moco sounds like a good nomination.

    The key is “impending second child” once you actually “have” one your life is over for the next two years, but until then… Perhaps I could be convinced to pant, whine, moan (and encourage) behind you through the Epic…

    Heh, you’re right. I am pretty sure the MoCo is after Sep 15, though.

    I would say “next year”, but I don’t know if I am ready to take on freezing saddles again just yet.

    Going out on a limb… I think that’s from when Geraint Thomas wore the white jersey at the Tour de France in 2010, since 2010’s Sky kit at the Tour had green accents for their rainforest charity.

    Pretty sure you’re dead on Dave, the Skoda sponsor gives it away. Cool jersey to have!

    Congratulations. Life doesn’t end with #2. Sleep does.

    Thanks! Yeah, I expect it’ll be a pretty big adjustment. And I expect my non-commute riding to be over for awhile. Looking forward to it, though. Another boy — so he’ll be getting a lot of hand-me-downs :)

    It’s not that bad. If you can stand the trainer, that’s still an option during naps. Also, taking #1 out on the Weehoo is a great way to get one-on-one time (I know, not quite the same as training for the Total200 nonsense).

    There are no KOM points on Kidical Mass rides.
