Thanks again to Alan Johnson for organzing a great ride Saturday. It was a ton of fun meeting folks, drafting those-in-the-know and getting ed-you-kay-tid on...
Hey gang: Enjoyed riding with all of you Saturday-perfect weather and a good turnout. Congrats to all the finishers, especially to the first-time brevet...
Branson, Really enjoyed riding with you, and all the first-year guys, including the tuxedoed Justin. I saw Dean out there as well, all smiles on the Siler City...
Snipped : Best of luck to everyone riding a flèche.. be safe. See y'all April 14th. Branson Branson mentioned the upcoming flèche rides organized by Richard...
Actually, we can't release it because it is too complicated for even the team members to remember it, much less fit it on a Tee shirt! (speaking from...
I happen to have inside information on the name, but it's so long I forgot the first five words before Rich finished telling me. I'm riding on Team Blaine...
... I've been hearing various rumors about several teams: naked laundromat shenanigans and whiteout conditions and the like. Anybody have an account to share?...
Many of us are too tired and maybe still to numb to write anything now. The conditions were tough, especially for the Raleigh groups who traveled west into a...
the sixth team also finished just outside the time limit. just wanted to mention that. ... _________________________________________________________________ ...
I periodically thought about the teams during the weekend, especially after I went out Saturday morning to pull ice encrusted tarps off the azaleas in my front...
All 'hail' a 'sleet' of riders whom braved record temps, wind gusts as better to sail. Anyone in a group as such will ride stronger than a spartan and warmer...
I've posted a ride report for Team N.D.D. The Team Poster is also there. Click on it for a larger view. Thanks, Mike http://ncrandonneur.blogspot.com/...
Cool! Thanks for a very entertaining write-up. I had not realized that y'all came that close to dnf'ing. I think our route must've somehow avoided the more...
YO! Adrian. The Morrisville 200/300 is this weekend, April 14th. The Spartanburg 300 is April 21st. Nice job on NDD Mike. I've also written an account for...
I'm planning on doing the 300k this weekend. Hard to miss the 300k, the middle 100k is one of the nicest rides around. I'm assume Dayton and some others are...
I will be in Myrtle Beach chasing a little white ball for 4 days. So I'll miss the ride and all you guys (sniff). I'll be back for the Spartanburg 300 and...
... the ... the ... half ... Not me. I read on the Research Trailer Park blog about the absolute carnage you wrought upon your fellow cyclists at the 200km...
Hello everyone, First of all, let me say that I have really enjoyed reading your fleche reports! Congrats to all who attempted and completed the ride. Now I...

Hello Kay Thanks for thinking of us and hope to see you back in NC! I did a flech last year with one of the groups out of Raleigh and am glad that I missed...
Kay, You'll be interested to know that one of the Team N.D.D. riders was Greg Schild, who lives in Katonah. He just did your 200K, which apparently crossed...
I'll track Greg down and say Hey. I don't think I've said "Hey" since I lived in NC! Ya'll are making me homesick! We had about 9000 feet of climbing in that...

That's ditto for me. I think Greg took off with my watch, it's a big yellow thing if you see it on his arm. Tell him we miss his pulls already! So, how come...
Mike and Jeffery, Thanks for the blogs. I always enjoy reading them. Be sure to save some good material for the RUSA news. Mike ... -- Michael Ross ...
It's a long stupid story. My teammate has new aero wheels with deep dish rims. The flat happened in the pitch black, and she had never fixed a flat on this...
