noreply@blogger.com (Levi) — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 18:35:00 +0000

Meeting at Grace, departure at 6:30 am

Tomorrow looks like a beautiful day of weather and should be great for getting out on the road.

Plan is to head up towards Cayucos and back...... (might have to hit Old Creek while we are at it)

Short route option if you want to do Turri Loop only

Saturday morning MTB ride_10.17

noreply@blogger.com (Levi) — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 20:51:00 +0000

Meeting at my house, departing at 7am

I will have coffee waiting if you would like to show up at 6:30 to warm up before the freeze!

Route: Up Stage Coach, down shooters to tracks, across to Red Dog - back up Shooters, over to Morning Glory and down all the way back home.

This is Ride #1 towards Sea Otter base training. Crash and I are doing the race and it is a 20 mile course. Therefore, goal is to get in a ~20 mile ride. (I am guessing at this being about 20 miles?)

Hope to see some of you guys manana!

Roadie Sat morning

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 22:31:00 +0000

Meet at Grace at 7:30 a.m. and head to Price Canyon and Pismo Beach before heading back via Ontario. Optional attack on Indian Knob for those wanting more work.

Save Nov. 14 for a long ride*

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 16:54:00 +0000

Fall is here, and the current heat wave not withstanding, crisp air, early sunsets and cold mornings are on the way. So, better get in one last long ride of the year. Here's your invitation: On Monday, Nov. 14, Hobbit and I plan to head up the Grade to Santa Margarita, do the A-town rollers and wind up on Vineyard Drive. From there, intersect Highway 46 and climb up and over to Highway 1, then back to SLO. A moderate pace means an enjoyable, fellowship filed 90 miler. And as Doc points out, this route lets one experience every good part of SLO County scenery.
You know you want to do it! Yes, it's a Monday, but the boss will give you one day!

(Rain will likely cancel, but this is a La Nina year so hopefully it is dry).

*An officially sanctioned Linked Cycling SLO event!

Prefumo on Sat

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 16:47:00 +0000

Last week we had a great stretch-it-out ride to Cayucos and back. Tomorrow let's do some hill climbing. Meet at Grace at 7 and after nice warmup to Prefumo, hit the mountain. At the top, 2 options: Go over and head through See Canyon and back to SLO (my preferred), or back down Prefumo only to ride back up again like a madman!
Hope to see you.

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 23:06:00 +0000

Sunday Ride Pre-Fall Kick-Off September 25th

noreply@blogger.com (Blake) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 17:37:00 +0000

Hey gang, anyone interested in riding road tomorrow morning? Say 7:00 am meet at Grace, ride hwy 1 to Whale Rock and back. 40 miles, should be under two hours. Or... hammer Perfumo twice. I am interested in one or the other, let me know if you are interested. Otherwise I may be lazy and ride after lunch.

Roadie on Sat -- Ormonde and Noyes

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 23:15:00 +0000

Would love to ride from Grace at 7 a.m. out to Ormonde, up that lovely incline, down to Noyes, then up that less lovely steep pitch and over to Highway 227 and back to SLO. Or elsewhere in that neck of the woods. Would love to do it with someone!

Saturday morning road ride_9.17

noreply@blogger.com (Levi) — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 17:46:00 +0000

Hey guys...... been a while since we have a good showing for a group ride. Lets rally, get out there and catch up with each other! Tomorrow morning, 7am, meet at Grace Church.

We'll do the two route option where you can join for first half and cut off or go long if you want.

I suggest we head up towards Cayucos and the short route could be Turri loop.

Comment if you are in so we know to expect you

Friday Ride September 9th?

noreply@blogger.com (Blake) — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 02:23:00 +0000

Is anyone interested in riding tomorrow morning? I have the day off and would be interested in riding. I am flexible on the time, I know most rides have been going out at about 7 am, which is fine. Comment back if you are interested in a roadie, or mountain ride.

The fall roadie campaign begins

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 17:34:00 +0000

School is back in session, politics is heating up, time to ride. Hoping to get a group at Grace at 7 a.m. Saturday for a nice two-hour roadie. Show up then and there if you are all in.

Roadie, anyone?

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 00:53:00 +0000

I would like to ride on Saturday, but have a tight time frame -- 7 to 8:30. Reply if you are interested. If no one wants to, I'll sleep in.

Also: I am writing a story for Friday's Trib on the end of Team Highroad. Owner Bob Stapleton told the cycling press today he could not line up a new sponsor and he cannot compete economically anymore with the new "super teams" that have twice as much money to throw around. Sad news. Highroad will disband after this season.

Monday Roadie August 1st 6 AM

noreply@blogger.com (Blake) — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 02:51:00 +0000

This may be my last ride before the wedding so I figured I should post it. Plan is to meet at Grace at 6 am and ride for approximately 2 hours. Hopefully some of you can make it out.

Back on the Mountain

noreply@blogger.com (Crash) — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 20:40:00 +0000

Riding on the road so much, I forgot how sweet the dirt was until yesterday. Got out with Levi and Drew (nickname pending) and rode Madonna.

Let's do it again.

Friday, 6:30 Shooters, taking off from Poultry Unit.

Reply if you're in.

Saturday roadie, as you like it

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 01:24:00 +0000

A roadie with options: Start at Grace at 7 a.m. and head to Cayucos. Upon arrival, those who want some climbing can head up Old Creek Road; others can remain coastal and return to SLO. Those on Old Creek can then head to the top and ride back down, or if more miles are desired, head west to Highway 1. The more, the merrier -- would love to see some Death Riders!

Something to ease Docs Pain...

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Martin) — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 02:27:00 +0000

Gotta love cycling. Experiences in big mountains, at elevation, leaves a mark. Love the humor, albeit I am sure there is a bit of truth in it. Glad to hear you finished safely. Hope the rest did as well.

Thought I would share something that reduces your pain perhaps. In a Tour marked with an unbelievable number of painful crashes, this one tops them all. Cannot believe these men remounted and rode to the finish.

No matter how bad your 5 mountain passes hurt, Flecha and Hoogaland are going to sleep pretty poorly tonight, and not sleep as sound as you. Glad you are back Scott and look forward to the stories...

Vive Le Tour!

Post Death Ride thoughts....

noreply@blogger.com (Scott 'doc' Morton) — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 00:29:00 +0000

Dear Road bike,
We've been friends for a long time and we've been through a lot but yesterday in the Sierra's you put me deep in the pain locker for 8.5 hours and I've decided I don't like you very much today!

Dear Golf clubs,
I know I've stuck you in the closet for a few years but I want to apologize for this and am wondering if you'll take me back, you put me through emotional pain but you never did what my bike did to me yesterday! Please forgive me for neglecting you!

The Death Ride was an amazing exercise in mental fortitude and pain management! 126 miles, 5 sierra passes, 15,000 feet of climbing. Open the pain locker door, step in, close the door and sit there for 8.5 hours... and we did this voluntarily!

Saturday roadie

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 02:05:00 +0000

For those who might want to jump in, roadie from SLO to South Bay Blvd and then back via Turri Road. 7 a.m. at Grace to roll out.
Otherwise, our thoughts go with the intrepid Death Riders -- Doc, Hobbit and Peter "The Dane" Kardel. Best to you, gents!

Roadie on the Fourth

noreply@blogger.com (Tad Weber) — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 21:36:00 +0000

Start the Monday holiday off right: Meet at Grace at 7. Head out Broad to Price Canyon to Ormonde Road. Climb that beautiful stretch to Old Oak Park, then down that lovely valley and into AG and on to Highway 1. Home via Pismo and Ontario Road. Let freedom ring!

Two For Tuesday

noreply@blogger.com (Crash) — Mon, 27 Jun 2011 00:10:00 +0000

Up and down Prefumo twice. Join Hobit and I Tuesday morning at 6:00 for some climbing before work. Reply if you're in.

110, 17, 15+, 2, 1

noreply@blogger.com (Scott 'doc' Morton) — Mon, 20 Jun 2011 13:51:00 +0000

Even though the word "epic" is a bit worn out, it must be used to describe SB to SLO 2011. 110 miles traveled, 17 riders, 15+ flat tires along the way, 2 crashes, 1 lost rider near the finish! A number of PR's were set for mileage, some first time century people on board -- nice job!
Now for the awards...
Most skin lost: Sean C
Best PR: Tad W
Best new rider effort: Ron J
Most committed: Rick W (His son was graduating that afternoon and his wife was wondering why he was even going on the ride)
Best friend: Ricky (came all the way from Oregon to ride with Sean)
Best Fan support: Dan W (wife and daughter were on State st. cheering when we got there)
Best SAG support: Ron J (wife picked him up in Lompoc)
Guess that's it, got to get to work, nice job everyone!
