Team Training camps via Biard family

Thanks to all that came, I would strongly encourage other categories to organize something similar.  We rode about 12 hours in 3 days, had two meals together, and learned a lot about each other on and off the bike.  Ronnie posted some pictures, hopefully he can add them to our THSJ facebook page and JR took some as well that will be posted soon.  Saturday’s ride was long 120 miles for some guys, at the halfway point we came across some “loose livestock”, we stopped for lunch and had to make our way through the herd of cattle.  They had a few calves and were quite aggressive.  I am not sure what would have done without the follow car.  Ronnie documented this with a few photos, but we survived and Stefan won the sprint points for the cattle guard on that one.  Sunday we rode east for just over an hour, we had a 20mph+ tailwind, then rode back home and did some laps on the nighter course for 3 more hours.  Cody Foster has to get the award for best legs on Sunday, after doing the longest ride of his life Saturday he won both sprints on Sunday.

We are having another camp in February, the 12-14th.  On the 13th we will start our ride from the shop and have an all team ride for the first hour before we split off to finish our training ride.  This will be a great chance for all the members to meet some of the elite riders on the team, ask questions and get to know each other.
