Awesome! Yes, I should definitely be at that ride. Closer to, we'll have to talk about ways to spot eachother. And maybe sometime I'll make it out to one of the TWBC rides, and you'll have to show me those ropes

We're doing the McClinchy Mile this Saturday, but might catch the CTS ride on Sunday. Will definitely make it the week after. I think I'm going to stick with the yellow group though. I'm still too slow on the hills to move up to green. I'll be the large lady on the Specialized Tricross...

Aww that looks like a nice and fun ride! I thought about doing the ride around puget sound, so it would have been nice had I known earlier, although I am trying to save money right now, so it probably wouldn't have been in the cards this year. It's relieving to know that it's someone's name, and not an indication of how you're body will feel after doing a whole bunch of hills or something though! It's too bad that the person it's named after, died early in life. Do you know what happened to him?

I don't know anything about Stuart McClinchy. Googling the name just brings up previous mentions of the ride in his honor. Hmmm. i hadn't made the connection between Clinchy and the way a hard ride might make one feel
, but now that you mention it, that seems fairly obvious.
Of course, you could always do the ride on your own. The maps are available on line and the course markings will remain for some time...
