Woo hooo!!! Congratulations! It took a lot of work to earn the right to buy some stuff! But you'll be 8 to 10 minutes faster on Diablo when wearing your Triple Crown jersey!

OK, I can't be the only one who laughed out loud at that.

For sure a sleeveless jersey. Maybe a long sleeve one since winter is coming.
Maybe I'll just get the whole kit.
It's hard being back at work. I know, I know... you guys have been at work all summer.
I told Thom yesterday I thought I was losing my fitness level. Then proceeded to crush the record I set at the beginning of August on my regular mountain bike ride. He called me a nasty name - teasing of course. He stayed with me until the final climb, but had nothing left when I acclerated near the top.
Anyway, it's hard to fit in the long rides. I'm hoping once I actually start teaching, I can get into a long ride routine a couple weekends a month.

Buy, Buy, Buy I say. WOW if I had accomplished what you have V I would want the whole kit. We do want to see pictures of you in said gear after the purchases are complete.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

There's actually a quintiple (?) crown - the 1000 mile club.
Five double centuries in one year.
