    liksani, bet it worked out because you had the basic fitness from the start.

    ACG see you on the ride. Are you in Team Amica Veloci yet? I suppose I could check that myself.

    Ok, I just e-mailed my cycle buddy. I am on the team! It will be great to ride with all you gals, or should I say my TE family.

    Today I couldn't ride, too dark and it is getting cold. I ride early a.m. before work. Guess it is time to hit the gym or use my bike on a trainer.

    Signed up and ready to go!

    After being a roadie (bike mechanic) last year, and experiencing the magic and inspiration, I've decided to ride in ALC 6!
    I'm very excited to be involved in such a great effort again.
    I'll be blogging my experiences on my webpage, along with tips and advice from my experiences as a bike shop employee, mechanic, and long-time cyclist.
    My first entry is on the basics of lycra shorts. Maybe this info will help someone out there.

    Kallisti, welcome to TE!

    This year will be my third ride and if you count the year I crewed (and we both know that's harder than riding) and the year I just lead training rides my 5th time participating.

    we have a TE team you're welcome to join too.

    I would really like to crew for ALC. Could put my medical skills to work. I'm not allowed to diagnose or evaluate, but I can fill an ice bag and tape knees and ankles!

    Edit: Yeah, baby! There is a special Roadie team just for ME!!! Sports Medicine!

    (now I just gotta find the contact person, and I'm not having much success at the moment. Trek? Help?)

    the medical crew could be hard to get into because I think they are all from SF general. If you have massage certification you could get into massage crew or on another medical crew.

    I think crewing's harder than riding
