Finally Friday

The sun is out and it is finally warmer after a cold start to this Friday. Yesterday one of our club members who had planned on teaming up with Realdo for the 2-man Time Trial tomorrow was sick and so at present it looks like I will be riding. It should be fun, although it is kind of tight to be both working the race and racing in it, but then it's not like I haven't done that before. Realdo and I will just start first so that I'm back in time to work on the results, assuming I don't suffer too much cognitive impairment as a result of trying to keep up with someone who has a whole history of European racing, including a couple of Olympics, under his belt. Still, I take some comfort in the fact that he's much taller than I, so at least I'll be getting significantly more rest. Of course I haven't ridden on my aero bars since last year. I'll just dust them off and clamp them on tonight and hope for the best!

We did a nice easy ride this morning with four or five riders - typical Friday. It was really nice, though, to have lots of sun and very little wind rather than the other way around.

I realized this morning that we didn't have any one-day license application forms. The USCF says they sent them and that they should arrive at my house today. So I asked them to fax me one so I can make some copies just in case. Never got the fax, of course, so I'll have to call 'em up again shortly. We still need to run out and measure and mark the course, too. At least the weather is looking OK for tomorrow and I did manage to get the LCCS results posted this afternoon, and I have a bunch of entry/release forms on hand.
