47m: Welcome to the Descenders

by Arlyn on May 12, 2008

Rode a nice 47 mile loop today with Dave S. of the Descenders. We set a healthy pace and dealt with an ever present headwind, even though we were riding a loop. Legs hurt a bit - should have spun them out on the trainer yesterday after Saturday’s big ride.

But the big excitement for me was getting my Descender’s jersey. It’s official, I’m a Descender :)

The Descenders are a group of guys who love to bike and more importantly, climb. They tackle the best climbs in Southern California.

It’s all downhill from here!

I really like the name - The Descenders.
I don’t think there is any better feeling than flying down a mountain at speed. Particularly when you have earned it.

Nice… we need a group like that around here. Sounds like great training… and nice jersey.

Cool jersey Arlyn!

You are looking thin too.

Why thanks Dave! I think I was holding my gut in just a little though.
