Good to meet some of you last night. Maybe we can get a team ride scheduled soon so the rest of us can say hello.

Oh, I was supposed to introduce myself, wasn’t I. I’m Kit, this is my first year doing FS. I’m a recovering road racer and trying to focus more on endurance-related events in my advanced age. (I rode RAGBRAI this past summer, but haven’t worked my way up to RAAM yet.)

I primarily ride my road bike. I do have an old Raleigh Technium CX bike I found on the side of the road on junk day last year, that I restored and converted to singlespeed to use as my commuter. So I’m good for the occasional gravel/C&O ride so long as it’s not too fast.

I live between Del Ray and Shirlington and work down near King Street at the Patent Office, so my commute is pretty short (3.5ish miles) but for the sake of the contest I’m trying to do it every day instead of telecommuting. As I posted in the Strava group, I typically get one hall pass a weekend to go for a ride, usually in the early AM, so I’m up for something longer then if we want to get a group together.

All team members are now on the Strava Group.

Well aren’t we a bunch of go-getters. And I just checked the leaderboard, which has been updated to show the teams, and we’re in first place by 30 points! Of course, that’s probably due to the fact that we’re the only team to have all 13 of its members show up on the leaderboard, but we can’t help it if the rest of the teams aren’t willing to put in the sleaze rides like we are. (Oh, we also currently lead in sleaze rides.)

Wow, so honored to be included on the team Sunyata handpicked for herself! Can’t wait to meet everyone.

If you include those starting with “K” there are now 15 on the Strava club plus one “Kit,” which may count as well.

It counts! In my case, “Kit” is short for Christopher.
