This past weekend was the first time in a while that I have been out for a good ride. It was a bit cold, but the sky was a clear blue with only a light wind and lots of positive attitude. Eric, Andrea, and Patrick were able to head out for the ride this Saturday (Mariana was able to make it out as well). Though it's been a while since I have put in a good amount of mileage, it was great to be out with three of them - even if I was just doing my best to hang onto their wheel (I was making sure if anything happened I'd be at the back to take care of them, of course, in preparation for my role during the race). They all rode really strong and were happy to be able to ride together and continue creating a strong biking base and conditioning for RAAM. I am looking forward to crewing for the three of them and Phil come this June!
