Come ride with SFR or SRCC some time! We have so many women doing our rides now. It's great. (And the Gus we have aren't so bad either. ), it would be great to have you join us some day. Maybe one of our double brevet weekends... (Put on by both clubs together). 200/200 or 300/200.

And - so exciting about LEL. I can't wait to read about it! (And about some of the build up.)

Sarah, I'd love to come down for a double brevet weekend. I need to do a mess of doubles in 2-3 months leading up to LEL. A did a couple back to back 200s in the fall, but so far in 2013 I've only done a 200/100 weekend. I'd like to work in some 300/300 weekends in June, too, when the days are longer and the temps are higher.

Do you know when your area's doubles are? It's a short flight to get down your way.

SRCC has some fall 200s this year which should be good.

This is PERFECT. :-) It's two weeks before LEL, which would be excellent timing as a final big training weekend! Taper after that! :-) I did a 300/200 double three weeks before PBP in 2011 and loved it. Felt really strong and ready to tackle the big event.

Excellent!

I just had a new permanent route approved (RUSA # 1873) and rode it yesterday. Super fun! I wanted to make something a little easier than my first perm, and this one features FIVE possible bakery stops right in the cue sheet (3 are controls, the other 2 are optional). Not for those on a diet....

I wanna do this ride!

It's a good one! Any time you want.

(There's actually a secret sixth bakery in there that I should really put on the cue sheet....)

Me too! :-) I'm actually working on a fleche route that will feature bakery and sandwich shops for all it's controls. As few gas station convenience store stop as possible! Our team name is the Ladies Tea & Crumpets Society.
