Wait. What did I win?
Being selected means I also get to add to my RTR gear collection. I love the design this year. May have to get one of these Primal Wind Jackets! |
Paul the Pilot is once again serving as Captain of Team Bar2Bar and this year he's bringing along a couple of crewmates! |
Being accepted for the 30th Anniversary Ride the Rockies also provides a lot of incentive to get up in the morning and work out (as I am about to climb on my Cyclops Fluid2 Indoor Trainer). My belief is that the amount of suffering on the ride is directly inverse to the amount of training you put in (more training = less suffering). I plan to take a different approach to training this year, however, after suffering a lot on last year's ride (with back, shoulder and hip pain). I'm going to focus less on accumulating miles and more on building core strength and conditioning. I'll share more on my training routine in the coming weeks.
If you got in, stay tuned here for training tips and insights into the route, towns, camp sites, hotels, bars, etc. If you did not get in (whether or not you registered) feel free to come along for the ride! It's always an adventure.
Ride on!

You're welcome!
ReplyDeleteVery nice prize. I love Colorado montains.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, not a Powerball kind of winning, still a pleasant one. When is the next RTR lottery draw to be held?
