Ride Description
We are doing the Roswell Ride on Tuesday 6pm leaving from the Roswell Area Park upper parking lot.  Starting at Roswell Area Park we ride through Historic Downtown Roswell.  We then take a few good hills followed by a ride down Riverside along the Chattahoochee, with a lot of good hills a long the way back to the finish.  We are doing the slightly longer 28 mile route again this week. 

A & B Group
Last week we had enough riders for an A and a B group.  The B group did regroup a few times along the ride, but not as often as normal to keep our pace up and finish the longer ride before dark.  We are dropping the No Drop policy for the next two weeks, allowing us to complete the full 28 mile route before dark.

Don't forget your running shoes and Taco Mac Passport
With the longer ride we have been doing a short 1.5 mile run around RAP after the ride, before heading up to Taco Mac for some well earned refreshment. We expect to arrive at Taco Mac around 8:45pm this week due to the longer ride.  Taco Mac is located at 685 Crossville Rd in Roswell, GA.

Weather Guideline
It's currently forecasted to be partly cloudy and 76 degrees.  
  

Awesome Achievement
Congratulations to Courtney for having a great race and completing her first Ironman in Louisville!

Great Riding Weather
Take advantage of the wonderful riding weather we have been having the last few weeks and Challenge the Hills of Roswell with us on Tuesday Night...

I h
ope to see you there!

I'll be riding from one of the locations. I'm hoping it will be from RAP. I'll be the last to finish so if you need anyone to make the last sweep I can handle that.

Enjoyed it last week, Justin - thanks for your organization!  Unless the stars radically change their alignment, I'm out this week.

Subject: Terrific Tuesday...

Karen,
Thank you for your comments and hope to see you on the ride tonight.   We are going to keep our fingers crossed that the skies hold out.

Brent,
If you are not skipping class to ride with us on Tuesday nights, you better be getting all A's to make up for missing out on some great rides.

Lou,
Thanks for coming out to ride with us last week.

Courtney,
Congratulations Again!  After Sunday take a rest, you deserve it.

Lisa,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!  We'll miss you on the ride tonight.
Can you ask Dan to take Tuesday's ride into consideration when he makes THE PLAN for the week... 

Stephanie,
It looks like it may just be you, Katie, possible Karen, and me for this evening, picking up Bill along the way.  Hopefully a few people will be showing up who did not post.

Katie,
No need to worry about bringing the jumper cables tonight, the Jeep clunker is in the shop getting a new alternator and heater core... 

Looking forward to another great evening of riding,

Justin
