Good article. We used to do some training rides on Mesa and at the Veloway/Autobahn that had involved training for specific race situations and race tactics....
Should we look into making it 3 days instead of 2, if the time slot is available? Two days gives us one day to do the Hunt loop and eat tacos, and then one...
We rode for three days last year.  Did we reserve 3 nights?  So far we've only talked about two nights this year.  Different sort of game. ... From:...

Yep, 3 days last year. And I still think it would be prudent to reserve an alternate weekend, as the weather is real sketchy that time of year. On Wed, Dec 3,...

Hi, all, I'm not opposed to using some of our next meeting for that. Wouldn't that be the 8th? Anyone have a topic they'd like to talk about? Winter Miles...
... Does this cound as Winter? If so, how many Miles do I get for going all out for 20+ minutes on a motocross dirt track, on my mountainbike? I went to last...
Stanton, I think that would be a great idea.  The collective experience within Velocity is a wonderful resource. Some of us later bloomers will never have...
I went as Bailey's (my grandson) driver and domestique. It was fun to have 4 Velociteers there. And Frank made the podium (such as it is).  Way to go! ...

Hey, Robert. I didn't see much response for Saturday morning.  Do you want to meet at the bridge at Stratford Drive at 10:00?  9:00? and do the dam...
