While riding Saturday I over heard conversation that a good rest is of great help to the recovery of any athlete such as a cyclists no matter what degree they cycle at can only make them stronger.I can only show proof of said surgery by posting pics of area of operation.I will if necessary.No shame here!

Re: [COWs] Re: July 4th Ride Report! COWS Membership Manual Para 2.1 clearly says no ride report unless it can be verified by another COW. Para 3.1 says when a member is on vacation, said member is to RELAX with family and not post any report in violation of Para 2.1. Repeated violations of said rules may lead to penalties as determined by the Rules Committee. Actually Rules Committee assesses Chris Hawley a "buy the first round" penalty for making up the hernia surgery story. The way he rode Saturday made Rules Committee question whether Chris has been off his bike at all.

Greetings from SE NJ! It sounds like you guys had a great 4th ride. Let me tell you about my "Firecracker Ride": A local bike shop hosts a 40 mile ride every Saturday morning at 8:00 sharp. They classify it as an A-level ride. Well after looking at the ride info on the web I figured I'd give it a shot, after all, it's flat here. Roughly 20 riders headed out at an easy 18 mph pace to warm up. Within 5 miles the pace was up to 22 mph. Soon after and before the 10 mile mark the rolling pace was at 25 mph. There were two sprint points but the pace only went to 28 for 1/2 mile or so, then back down to 25. We rolled at 22 - 25 for the remainder of the route. My ride average was 21.27mph (traffic stops etc.) These guys and girls ride hard. I did the COW's proud and held my own, took several pulls at pace and even attacked the bridge on the way back with the small group 7 or 8 that rode over from the island. From the back I passed the group @ 35 and topped the bridge (a little larger than the emerald isle bridge)at 23. Started the attack a bit too early and got passed 150 ft from the top by one rider so I took 2nd. Needless to say the ride was definitely full of testosterone. Today, went out solo for a recovery ride, 45 miles (my total mileage yesterday was actually 50)at my usual 20 pace. After yesterday that about killed me. It was fun and did meet a "local" who is originally from Hickory. She definitely noticed the southern dialect. I'll try to remember to snap some pics to post. Later... ---- [email protected] wrote: --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CyclistsOfWilson-COWs" group.
