Kucharic Wool - good tip

Thanks for this suggestion... I bought a two tone (blue/ivory) jersey and it fits more like Pearl Izumi than say, Castelli. So a large fits like a US large vs. an Italian brand XL fitting more like a US medium. The wool fabric is substantial, but not overly hot. It has three huge, deep rear pockets (much more volume than standard jerseys). Nicely made and very affordable compared to other wool jerseys out there. Received in less than a week.

Update, and maybe not a good one (I think). My wife saw my new two toned French looking wool cycling jersey and said, "Oh, thats a cute top." I may leave it behind, we'll see...

@squirtdad Inquiring minds want to know what your HS mascot is.

Being a Live Oak "Acorn" Alumni, I'm thinking I may have you beat in the weird mascot contest. Go Nuts!

The Ride with GPS info was helpful. Really looking forward to the ride...
Cino 2013 brought us a sudden lightning storm and really cold air. I thought I would get hit by lightning on 9 mile or freeze on the way down. Rivers of water in the road. I could not open my hand death grip for 15 minutes. The next year I nearly overheated and stroked out. Takeaway is to try to predict the weather on the climb. If you are in Colorado, you get it. MT weather can change in no time.

Don't forget the Hollister Haybalers...1,000's of acres of weight room.

My cousin's alma mater The Fight'n Artichokes deserves an honorable mention at least in that category.

Is everyone getting excited yet? I'm looking forward to sharing a post ride beverage with y'all soon on the lawn at Alameda's!
Cheers!

I'm excited and gettin' ready! I just have to loctite the Cinelli's chainring bolts and then dig out my somewhat ratty Wheaties jersey and that should complete the preparations. Looking forward to those post-ride (and some syn-ride) beverages.

Super excited, probably over packing and undertraining

Making sure all rides are on the Cino Rig and making sure all is smooth. Have some gravel loops I am adding as part of my noon time ride.

have rides mapped out for training when visiting my dad in Chinook the week before (well one anyway dads house to Chief Joseph Battle ground)

will be fun to meet more people IRL

A big me too on the excitement. As good a shape as my old body will get. May not repeat my 2019 Lantern rouge finish as the competition looks fierce Planning a 2 day trip, with a night in Spokane. Will have some long postponed surgery in September, so this will be my last big ride for a while. Don

Everybody keep training! The weather has taken a turn for the better and the smoke has cleared out. Hope it stays that way for the next two and a half weeks!

It's not a Cino bike, but it's steel, low trail, 8-speed, 26" and it loves gravel:

Many of us Cino virgins would definitely be appreciative of you cooking up something.

It doesn't have to be available at the ride but it would be great if I could buy something later to celebrate the ride. No pressure...just dreamin'

We're getting there. It'll be last minute, but we should have a T-shirt available.

Tell that to the dude who paved a mile of road with this stuff - it was harrowing (in the non-agricultural sense)!

Gravel samples 3,000 miles apart. Oregon shots from yesterday's ride, Florida shots were back in May. There are some really tough and very challenging stretches of eroded dirt, deep sand and rough gravel on Cino, but also long stretches that closely resemble gravel roads all over the USA. Don't go in unprepared. Find some gravel in your area and ride it.

Hoping #1: that everyone got Dave’s message about t-shirts and sizing, that they responded, and that we’ll have Cino-wear
Hoping#2: that the MRI happening at 5:30 am local time tells my Ortho Doc that I can ride. 90+ miles on the trainer this week!

Physio tape?

I did this a few years ago, rode a TdFFD 10 weeks after this happened.
