I'd keep you company at the back of the pack! My husband has worked a lot of OT at that power plant and we have a lot of friends that work there. <br /><br />Way to rock the ride and provide yet another wonderful race report. Can't wait to see you in the Team V kit. :)TriMOEngrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263218066341525194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1901742418169240469.post-27431852228914587232012-03-11T21:57:51.211-05:002012-03-11T21:57:51.211-05:00I freaking adore your ride reports - you make me f...I freaking adore your ride reports - you make me feel like i was right there with you :)<br /><br />(and then you for SURE would never be last, because I'd be dumped in a ditch somewhere!)bobbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04527731795745786604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1901742418169240469.post-72591427087497646732012-03-11T21:26:22.864-05:002012-03-11T21:26:22.864-05:00Nice long ride Kate!

I was telling the truth when I said you made us a better team.<br /><br />It was a blast riding with you, and I'm glad you made it.

And I certainly didn't hold my own, I just had a great group looking out for me.<br /><br />Abby, it totally reminded me of all the road rides I used to do on my hybrid. I always said if I had a dollar for every person who told me I needed a road bike, I'd be able to afford a great one. :) I was definitely proud to be able to finish the ride on my mountain bike, and it was great saddle time in preparation for LBL.Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1901742418169240469.post-79183016909193758492012-03-11T19:51:21.603-05:002012-03-11T19:51:21.603-05:00Love the ride report, Kate - sounds like a great m...Love the ride report, Kate - sounds like a great morning! My friend and I once did a century ride on mountain bikes, while everyone else was on road bikes. I stopped counting the number of comments we got about 10 miles in, but I was secretly proud of our bad assedness. I think you've got a similar claim for this one :)Abby @ Have Dental Floss, Wil Travelhttp://havedentalflosswilltravel.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1901742418169240469.post-30975274236206751542012-03-11T19:39:02.913-05:002012-03-11T19:39:02.913-05:00This sounds fun.

Did you do sports in high school? <br /><br />That last hill would have done me in and I would have walked all of it!!!
