ABC June Road Time Trial

Tonight, it was time once again for the monthly road time trial. Kudos to all who showed up tonight with the wind howling like it was. If the times seem a touch slower that normal, that's because the wind was gusting around 40 miles per hour. At least the way back in on Hwy 36 was enjoyable! Enough talk - here are the results.

1. Thomas Talley - 25:08
2. Josh Brown - 26:07
3. John Paul Barrandey - 27:59
4. Greg Allen - 29:59

At this point Jim is still having fun

After two flats, Jim's just glad to see the finish line

Go, Luke!

Great job, Maggie!

The race at Comfort was a lot of fun and finished just in time. By the end of the awards, the cold wind and rain clouds had blown in. Glad the weather held off as long as it did!

Been Gone a While...

...because of this:

Sorry to all who actually read this blog! Life has been a bit crazy having to come up with things to keep a very active, energetic 6 year old boy entertained for the past 5 weeks. One result of the craziness is that the blog has suffered. And, yes - the broken collarbone happened while riding a bike. Well - to be more accurate - the broken collarbone happened after the landing of a jump attempt. Apparently, the jump was great. The landing - not so much. Anyway, the countdown to resumed activity is almost over, so, hopefully, regular blog posts will return!
