| Expert 842 | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! You should absolutely do it. It was my first multi-sport race that involved road biking (oh wait, it was my second but that was years ago) and I think it was the Captain's first as well (correct me if I am wrong Rob). It is a fun race that has people from all levels. There are the first timers on Mtb bikes to the real speed demons. See you there Mark |

Expert 755 | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! Polly, Ok, Since it is a slow ride and I have zero fitness I am in for the ride. I too am on the fence about this race ( but I guess someone has to be DFL) how about we do one loop on the run course after the ride? I am happy to be a back of the packer on the run doing 25-27 minutes if anyone is interested. Any takers??? Seth Rob, do not eat a roast beef sandwich on friday night or we are all doomed.... Also, depending on how I feel might want to do another loop on the bike if anyone is interested pm me or post an idea here. No guys with race wheels need apply... only kidding.. |

Master 1265 CT | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! Hi Marlborough Man, I am a steady mid-packer too—so stop it! I think doing a run after the ride is a great idea! Polly…? |

I want everyone to go back and re-read the post above. Pay particular attention to the following: "Since it is a slow ride and I have zero fitness I am in for the ride..." Then, Mr. "zero fitness" says... "how about we do one loop on the run course after the ride?" Also note the following, "might want to do another loop on the bike ..." Is that AFTER the run??? So you tell me, who is yankin’ whose chain??? See ya’ there! Now, where the he11 did I put the mayo??? |

Expert 755 | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! Cappy, I am in desperate need of more training so i figured two SLOW loops are my style. And a shuffle in between. By the way, perhaps you should try miracle whip! NOt to hijack the thread but is anyone doing the griskus OLY tri or interested in a recon ride? I am thinking that might be fun. I hear it is a tough technical bike course. Basically, that doesnt mean much to the captn and his weekly 90 mile rides, who loves ya baby!! Seth |

Expert 755 | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! Hi Gang, It looks as if we lost Polly as well. I am defintely doing this on Saturday. If anyone is still planning on going please let me know. I am going with the original plan of an 8am start. My plan is to ride the course at a moderate pace ..go for a 1 loop run or shuffle (LOL) and yes ride the course one more time for fun. If anyone wants to join me for any or all of this journey please either post here or drop me a pm. I have 3 children and need to get my schedule set or else! The weather is looking better so come on out for an easy tune up!! Hope to see you soon, Seth |

Veteran 249 Northeast | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! I'll be pre-riding the course later in the day - if a later time works out for anyone better than the 8:00 get-together, please let me know. This is a great race, and has long-served as my "season opener". Hopefully, we'll get a great crowd this year out there, and the weather will be improved from last year! See you out there. |

| Pro 3903 Andover | Subject: RE: Shamrock Duatlhon: 2006 Duathlon National Championship series race! Nice ride today. BTW: I think it's worth noting, for those of you unaware, last year's results show our man jvinciqu placed 4/10 in his AG and 18/148 OA! And Stone was 6/10 AG and 33 OA! Can't wait to see you guys with some hardware this year! Edited by CptnJackSparrow 2006-05-06 10:24 AM |
