TNR Aug 11 Swim, Sizzle, Sweat and Western Video
















Summer is here for real. For the past several weeks we have been locked in this cycle of heat, humidity and storms. While uncomfortable it is also a great time to ride. Biking when hot is about all you can do (other than swim, more on that later) that will allow a high output with less duress.
The ride went off well with the two groups both having good solid efforts and benefiting from the warm muscles and August fitness. Bill Schneider has provided some nice Action Cam shots and Todd R. unveils his new kit over his lean Uber Bod.
Lots to report: The Point to Lapointe Swim http://www.bayfieldreccenter.com/Point_to_LaPointe_Swim.html was this past weekend. Several local swimmers did the event which means swimming from Bayfield to Madeline Island. Great water and great weather made this a fun event, that and no one drowned. See more shots at www.flikr.com/photos/incomp/ .

As you may remember we recently returned from Washington State where we took part in the Raleigh Dealer Show and now we have a video link to it. We really did ride although I found the steep and deep mountain stuff (yawn) a little tame for my blood. Check out http://raleighsummerevent.com/ and be sure and watch the DB Freestyle dudes on the third video, fearless....good.

We are looking for a serious rider who may need some physical therapy. Aurora Sport Medicine is putting on a serious rider clinic and is looking for a volunteer to get worked on/specimen/featured guest, sweet. They start in Mid Sept. Let me know if your interested.
You probably know that Lance will not be doing the WS 100 this weekend but that is no reason not to do the Ore to Shore in MQT, MI. Nice ride on some cool trails. A fast 40 before FTF. The heat is on so get on the bike. See you next week and SO2.
