Down to the wire!

This was going to be a training log as I planned a 115 mile ride last Saturday. As it turns out, I got the flu and was in bed for 2 days and I have started my "tapering" early!

Only 4 days now until start! Last minute crew changes, conference calls, organizational meetings to attend, food lists, first aid kits to assemble, maps to print, program the GPS, plan for hydration and nutrition needs on the ride - wow!, the list never ends. The logisitics for this thing are as daunting as the training. Oh, and are the uniforms going to make it on time?

First of all, we are indebted to our crew support - Mark Sherman, Sharon Sherman, Rick Lopez and Hans! We couldn't do it without them and they don't have any idea at this point what they are in for. As for us, we are just ready to ride! Let's just get on those bikes and ride and be able to forget about all that other stuff.

Oceanside, CA pier - Wednesday, June 17, 12:16 p.m. Taos or bust!
