Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.

Everyone has the obligation to ponder well his own specific traits of character. He must also regulate them adequately and not wonder whether someone else’s traits might suit him better. The more definitely his own a man’s character is, the better it fits him.: Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC)

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Ride Description: Wednesday Night Ride

+ Wednesday: No Stop/No Drop
{STEADY to HIGH ROLLER

Wednesday night is our flagship “NO DROP” ride where we will go at the pace of the slowest rider; we expect to consistently pedal without “taking breaks” but want to ensure every rider finishes with another rider or coordinator.

Generally, it falls into two distinct riding groups. We’ll always make sure no one is left behind, but we’ve been told by many first-timers that the hills are quite challenging and we recommend some fitness before committing to this ride.

Rolls out at 6pm from Straubb’s Parking Lot in Webster Groves, Missouri

Nature Valley Recap:Day 1 St.Paul

carrie — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 13:27:29 +0000

Rain, Rain and more Rain. As we parked, warmed up, and previewed the course, it just rained.

As we approached the line, and the official was readying us, it dumped. Bam!!! Off we went like a herd of desperate cattle in a stampede, looking for cover. One big attack on the front kept this race strung out and blown to pieces. Favorites like Van Gilder found themselves standing on the sideline as the race officials weened the course of riders. In the end, it was a wash (no pun intended). The stage was chalked up a non-qualifying stage. With lapped riders in the chase group, many non-lapped riders standing on the sidewalk watching, the officials had no choice but to wash their hands of this stage, and begin a new the next day.

I can say one thing, the time bonus, and the HUGE time gap that Kristen had on the field, as well as, Brooke Miller, it was a shame that they were not rewarded in some fashion for their stellar efforts.

Gals-What is your individual takes on this race?
