Fredwina does a brvet! (is this old news?)

[Fredwina]

wow, you completed your brevet WITH HILLS a lot faster than Raleighdon did his saturday; with a 2800 feet of climb..

you're doing great!

I had 3622 using web based mapping (too cheap to buy a Garmin)
Maybe I should move up there,. MT! I'm usually the last one in. But then I usually don't tarry too long at control.
Sliver, welcome to the Crazy Lady Society I'm trying to remeber if JoBob or myself is the prez...(maybe it's MP You may be in the sam boat I am, as I think the nearest series to you are in St Louis and Lexington, KY

Fred, we could use you!
but Raleighdon isn't a tarrier either. but they did stop for lunch.

he was riding with 3 others, and they decided to stay together.

Nice report. I think we'll do the 200k and 300k in January...they're on our calendar. Thought about doing the 200k on December 15th, but don't want to drive all the way down to Chula Vista!

[Fredwina]

Geez, you're not do the Rancho to hemet one on 11/24 wah! wah! wah! It has a totallly excellent route(it's estianlly one of my perm routes with less controls )
I'm never posting here agian!
on a serious note, i found a Fellow Rando rider (am I the only one who hate the term "Randonouse" for Female Brevet ride? Makes me feel like should sprout wings and start honking!) in Rancho, and he trying to get to do the AZ series, plus we're working on a Fleche route from cucamonga to Oceanside.
If you're really interested, check out www.rusa.org. You'll need to join to get distance credit, but everyone's dues expire in Decmenber, so you may want to wait for a month.
Brandy, Bbby Fisher and the LA Wheelmen are supposed to do a series on the westside next year, Another option, as the rumor is the SLO series are no more....

Thanks for the heads up, I just saw Bobbie a couple of weeks ago at Furnace Creek. I'd be interested in seeing what she puts together! Hmmm...maybe I'll email her.

I haven't decided on the whole brevet series yet, mainly because of time constraints, other events, childcare, etc. The 400k falls the week after Butterfield Double, so I am defaulting and letting George take that one.

Funny you should mention the Az. brevet series, I was just on the website this morning!

[Fredwina]

Unless you're planning on doing an event that requires it (like a 1000 or 1200K), or just want the Super Randonneur title, there's no need to do the whole thing... I probably should get around to doing a 400K and 600K myself

[Brandy]

That's the thing...I'm not! I just think they'll be good early season training rides. Well that and the boyfriend thinks I need to toughen up and do some longer unsupported rides before I start dreaming about Furnace Creek 508 Solo. If I could get the jan/feb 200k and 300k's from San Diego and Los Angeles that would be a good jump start on my doubles season. I really need to just get out and climb...I've decided to take on Mulholland and Heartbreak Doubles this year and the Grand Tour Triple. We'll see how all of this goes!
