Rollin' Thunder

Last sunday was my last big ride so I didn't think 4 hours in the saddle would be that easy. However, I didn't think the hurt box I ended up in at the end of todays ride would shrink to the size of an apple. Mmmmm, food. I do not know what takes a guy like Chris Martel (one of our new Elite riders) away from the sport for 15 years. And, it is hard to say what brings him back to it so quickly. The first three hours were reletively easy, but......as we climbed our way up out of Maeystown and out of the river valley the joking stopped. For those of you watching bike racing in the midwest next year. Keep your eyes on Chris because he isn't looking back.
