Yes, Sugarloaf and Mountaingate. Ouch!

It's funny. Everyone keeps asking me if I race or when I will start racing. Even though I was a successful competitive runner, I respect the sport of cycling too much to just jump into the racing scene. It is so, so technical and I'm still learning so much. With running, I just put my shoes on, trained hard and ran fast. And at this point, I am really, really enjoying the group rides. Maybe...maybe...someday I'll do a race. Then again, every Sunday I feel as if I am racing

Sorry to hear that you were not feeling well. Hope you are over it by now and you'll be back on the bike tomorrow.

By the way, did Tom tell you what he said to me? When I think about it, I can't stop laughing. We talked early on during the ride. Then Stan crashed and 6 of us stayed with him. As I said in my previous post, the group of 7 split up into 2 groups - Mountaingate and not Mountaingate! We got swallowed up by the A group and part of the B group crossing Wisconsin. Because Tom hadn't seen me after the paceline, he said, "Did you do the A ride today??" I should have lied and said, "Why yes, I did!!!" (In my wildest dreams!)

Me....I was home in bed, sick. I had been teetering on the brink of a head cold all day on Saturday. Took a Sudafed before hopping into bed, and stared at the ceiling, wide awake, until 3 a.m. Dozed. Woke up at 5:30 with my head about to explode. Felt chasing you guys around for 30+ miles might not be such a good idea!

Glad you had an awesome weekend. We'll be calling you National Champ too, one of these days!
