Ah, he's a long way from a LOF. He's still just a LF!

I thought the trio of LOFs (and LFs) did a mighty fine job today. Having Lee set the pace for Robb made a huge difference and I think it is what kept him motivated. I was floored when I found out Robb made it up. Thank you both for keeping Moose rolling uphill. Originally Posted by jobob

uh, I beg to differ, Moose was way faster than us. At least until that wretched mile or so before Devils Elbow.

But I saw the smiles on your faces and not quite the same on Moose's. I also saw him walking around a bit crippled when he got out of the car at home. He told Bubba that he was going to have to get a bigger cassette and that he'd paid big time for his little gears. Yes, it was a huge accomplishment for him but he's going to be sore! I know that having you back there meant he was willing to back off the pace. I've ridden enough hills with him to know that he will push to stay with a faster rider and then blow up. Something tells me you two aren't going to be in the pain he will be tomorrow. Originally Posted by jobob

Snap, sounds like you made it! That's awesome! Now I have to try it sometime... but not on May 8. That is not only Mother's day (gotta go be with my mom) but its also my birthday so I will be celebrating with the whole fam damily.
(And hopefully getting some new cycling shorts and a jersey!! )

Nope, I ended up staying home trying not to get sick.
I didn't want to push it and end up missing out on Top Hat. Drank lots of Airborne, did the sinus thing, so I think I may live.
