Call Me Crazy

[Adventure Girl]

There is only one other woman registered. Geez... if I can make the cut off for Terrible Two, I could come in second.

You could come in first!

Holstein is a definite for me. Not sure about any others.

Funny, that's what Thom said too.

I'm hoping to maintain my fitness level so I can do Knoxville in September. I think I can mountain bike on the weekend day I'm not road riding. Slower than cold molasses running uphill in winter time maybe.

I'm still thinking I'd like to do a "double" with the Holstein and Tour of Napa Valley on the same weekend.

Strawberry Fields is a possibility.

Right now, I'm registered for Party Pardee, Primavera, Grizzly Peak and LRRH. I was thinking about doing Tierra Bella, but I see registration is now closed .

Hey V-

looks like you have some time in between 6/17 and 7/15 for a little european excursion.......

That is probably an ideal timeframe for me as I will need to start work mid to late July at the latest. And I'm looking forward to some R&R at home between graduation and LRRH before heading off for my vacation....

Here's my little list including trips because it all has to be timed to get me in shape for Wine Country Double Metric. I think I can do it because 7 days of mtbiking should get my legs strong then I'll go sit on my posterior for 100 flat miles at Bike Around the Buttes. Legs and butt - that's what I call cross training.

*4/1 Party Pardee - 65 miles, 4,500' climb
*Mid-April - 7 days of mtbiking in UT
4/22 Bike Around The Buttes - 100, 350' climb
*5/6 Wine Country - 125, 7,000+' climb
*Memorial Day Wkend - 5 days of mtbiking Oregon
*6/3 Little Red Riding Hood -100, almost flat
*8/19 Holstein Hundred - 100 or 65, 5,500' climb
8/20 Tour of Napa Valley - 65, 3,000' climb
9/9? Sisikiyou Century - 100, 4,600' climb

Kim, I'm pondering Napa. If I commit I'll only do a metric for both the Holstein and Napa. I really want to do the Siskiyou again. I really liked it, but then I like being in the middle of nowhere.

* For me = committed or already registered.

WrenchBoy has to decide what he wants to do. He left his double days behind years ago so training and riding beyond 65 miles means its without my best buddy and I'm definitely a social rider for anything centuries. That's why I added BOB.

My in-laws arrive on 6/17 and are staying until 6/22. Thom's big project at work is up in the air still - we're hoping we can take some time and go back to Zion around the July 4th. Yeah - it will be crowded, but what can you do. I REALLY want to hike more of the Narrows. We won't know until the end of the month what's going on for him.

Why does work always have to get in the way?

Maillotpois, did you see our reports on the Siskiyou?

It was a beautiful ride in the boondocks west of Yreka. Well-supported, no crowds and almost no traffic. Heaven!
