9/26/10

Guess what? Its time for the Sunday worlds! If you ride out of New Haven we have a new departure point. We will be meeting at Romeos cafe on Orange st at 9:15 Sharp. Robyn, E, Cocci and I rolled to the giant battling a stiff head wind all the way. At the park we met up with the usual hard core guys. Most of the S&S crew , Hippie Chris and the Bethel family Robinson. Throw Guido, WCK and a crazy guy from Yale in Pippy long stockings and you have a ride. It started out mellow witch was alright with me. The legs are still on vacation. The full Zanes team started to rotate at the front during the first sections off rt10. The pace started to hot up after the crossing of rt42. We made the light at 68 so the pace steady all the way to the industrial park. One thing of note was Pippy almost took everyone out on the chicane, with his great cornering skills. (Guido he is your responsibility do something) The ride got really moving at the ski slope and when we hit the dirt section MCG set a pace that only E, Cocci, WCK and me could handle. The main group was about 30 seconds behind us. Once off the drit I sat up to wait for Robyn, she still cant put the power down after her crash. We took the short cut at Jude so I cant tell you what happened at the turnaround. I do know this the group was the five I left Guido, Crowell and Jucianto. I can guess that they had to make a hard effort to get on. Everyone else was OTB. The ride was mellow until rt10, the ride got scary at the bottom of the hill. WCK and E thought it was a good time to do some motor pacing. I bailed with 1km to go so if you have any info post it. We headed back to the city and had coffee and cakes at the cafe, and had a nice chat about the ride. I hope next week will be more eventful. Come out and see for your self.
