I'm not saying a word about his 30 pound weight loss and 10-pound-lighter bike.

You can never have too many internet distractions at work. Plus MTBR ticked me off with the photo hosting.

Welcome, Dalton camping neighbor and fellow biker!

That foul smell coming from our campsite will be Splat.

So I was looking at my workout log from last year, and I see that I suffered my Vietnam-induced injury on April 24. After that, I only rode 12 times before Dalton weekend. 12 rides between April 24 and June 25 isn't all that much. Anyway, I guess my point is that with just a little effort, I should be in much better race shape this year than I was last year.

How about a big effort, so you/we will kick some serious ass

Nothing crazy for me until after Dalton. On top of the injury last year, I was also away for two weeks on business trips. I have nothing on my calendar for this year.

That was our third team ride last year, but this winter went a lot longer than last winter.

By the way, JT will be in Connecticut May 21 (the day after the MMcG Freedom Ride). All are welcome to ride with us that day (I know you'll be on the Cape, Doug). I'm thinking Soapstone Mountain.

Not really training, just riding. More riding just naturally makes for stronger legs and lungs. :) I am planning on some ass-kicker training specific rides though.

I'm really forward to the race this year. Between being in better shape, hopefully getting a good night's sleep the night before, and hopefully not having all kinds of intestinal problems, I am expecting myself to do much better.

I was hoping that would pan-out for me as well. :think: ;)
