Holstein 100 2007

[melissam]

There is a slim chance, if all goes well, and if I can provide appropriate treats and encouragement to the elves at the LBS, that I might have my bike ready to ride sometime this weekend!

Perhaps a stop at BevMo is in order?

PS I'm signed up for the 67 mile ride de cows.

Here you go then.

Well now you surely gone and scared Veronica out of this thread - what with her cow phobia and all......

[SadieKate]

She needs practice.

I'm disturbed by how the cables are routed through the cow's brain.

But then I'm also the one who thought SK was asking where the ride started....

I know, it doesn't look very aerodynamic, does it?

Pizza or pie during the build. Beer for after.

They don't seem to be much of a beer drinking crew over there, but brownies might do the trick.

(Is this a total thread hijack, or what? Sorry! )

Well, I think it is aerodynamic - internally routed cables and all - but I am concerned about the potential for brain damage. I know, I know, it's just a cow, so how can you tell? But still, I think the PETA people would certainly have something to say about it.





Now THAT'S how you do a thread hijack.

I think I can tie it all together:

Brownies go with milk, where does milk come from? COWS! Hey, HOLSTEINS are cows! Holstein 100 -- Ta Da! Back on topic! Phew!

But the cables through the brain kind of gets me too - it makes the inside of my head itch to think about...

Well I'd signed up for the full century, but I met some of the organizers for the Napa Century this weekend, and my DH and I may sign the tandem up for that. I may end up doing one of the shorter routes for this one.

Perhaps if she shaved.

Umm.. I thought of this ride today because of the following sad news story

Oh dear!

[Deanna]

That is sad and has got to be one of the freakiest accidents I've read about.

Roommate Amie and I just regestered for the full century

Will probably end up staying at a hotel up there the night before, so would be up for any pre-ride dinners etc.

Now to start training......
