We are just over the half-way point in the season. Solvang is about six weeks away!
We had a surprisingly large number of drops at commitment time, but hopefully we will hit our team fundraising goal.
Personally, I am struggling on the bike and on the fundraising side of things. I got a nice boost from a Facebook post, which was nice. I am now at 50% of my goal. What I really need is more riding and especially more climbing. We have not done much climbing this season thus far and I missed a ride two weeks ago due to a cold. So, I am going to try to do some climbing on my own this weekend. Should be “interesting.”
On the positive side, I think I am riding with a solid group. Last weekend was the first time I got to ride with them all season! Should be fun when we get to Solvang, but I want to be in better shape when we do!
