I want to do the RSVP, some of the hills look to be out of my current pedaling abilities but I have no issue walking my bike up a hill if need be. Is anyone interested in going as a TE group? If so I'm up for that, sounds like fun!

Interesting thought Wasp....I would consider that possibly. I think we'd want to plan an organized ride together at least once to make sure we are compatible speed wise, etc... Maybe Flying Wheels next year?? Something to think about before the January sign ups anyway. I am not fast on hills (to say the least) but the only one I had to walk was THE WALL... Mostly they are just long steady cranks.

What a great group of ladies! Instead of telling me I'm crazy for even considering it, you want us to form a TE group ride!!!! I love the support!

I would admit to being a little bit crazy. Originally Posted by smittykitty

Hadn't thought of that! Good motivation. We have rooms reserved in B'ham and Vancouver. Not sure yet how we will get back to Seattle yet. Glad to see you're in too.

One pedal stroke at a time, at your own pace - you will do fine! Originally Posted by smittykitty
