ThNR Report
This week the ThNR saw Albert, Johnny, Gavin Franklin and Steven head out to Tinker for a quick hit of the trails. They were in el primo early season condition.
A sweet section of MB MTB trail.
Gavin shows his form. Classic ready position.
Steven shows his bod.
After the ride we met at the clubhouse where we were joined by Myron, David, Paul, James, Dan and Shaun. The Jets were on, glycogen stores were replenished (that means we drank beer and ate chips) and things were said.
Our hearts are in the right place.

Saturdays and Tinker - Why not?
It's a beaut of a day, irregardless of the 30 km/h south wind. Yet another group ride? Why not?
We're tough enough. So tough we might do this again tomorrow.
The usual stop at the TCT Wes Hamm corner. |
Top of the hill conference. |
Shaun rubs it in. |
Daughter trash talks father. |
It never looks this awesome when you're grunting. |
Post-ride communion. Thanks Dan! |
Bull! |

Tinker Ride Report
Another Saturday brought another group ride, this one to the hills near Tinker Creek. We nine celebrated eventual coming of spring with fire in our hearts and steel in our eyes.
We rode together.
We climbed hills together.
We stood there, together.
We stood there, too. Together.
We finished, on our own, by coming back together.
Then we had the usual standing around and talking about what we had just done, how much we had enjoyed it, and when we could do it again.
Group rides on gravel are great.

Shannondale #2 Ride Report
Good bunch out today. Working on form for the HP Spring/Summer/Fall extravaganzas. There will be no mercy, so don't look for it here.
The weather was a bit shit - windy and cooler than we thought, though it was from the NE which is, we think, best for this ride. All in all it was a gooder as predicted. Here's a few pics and the data (obviously).

On the way up. Good form here.
Still climbing. Keep your pecker up!
Heading in. Or up. Whatever. It's gonna be what it is.
Working it from afar. The world is on a string, baby.
And here's the data:
A few minutes faster than the March ride, but we're still working on getting into HP form. Damn those hills!
Beer is good though. And the burgers at Rox! Good reviews on the Lumberjack. Not so much on the Highwayman. Money isn't everything. Sometimes the cheap things in life are free.
