Not a competitive bone in my body!

This year, at the CWC, I opted to do the metric route with a friend of mine who wasn't able to handle the full. My DH and the crew from the LBS (if you saw a train of guys in black and red kits, that was them - we had about 25 at that ride) did the full. I get dropped on that first 8-mile climb on that route. My best hope is to sweep them up later, when they blow up for charging too hard at the start! I don't have their power, but generally, I have endurance.

I'd be up for some new routes. I couldn't do crack-of-dawn rides, but later rides (esp. in the winter, when it warms up some!), I could certainly find myself in PA or elsewhere.
