Wintergreen Ascent

Posted by Dan on 3. May 2010 08:26

Not a lot to say here. Hot day on the mountain and Frank's first Wintergreen climb on a bicycle. I felt good - good enough to come up behind Frank and do my best god voice, telling him to pedal faster. He quickly told me to stop talking to him so I passed him in such a way that would make him feel like a little girl with cement shoes chained to a fire hydrant. Wick passed Frank and rolled up to the finish line wearing evidence of his efforts. We didn't stick around for the posting of results because we all knew Matt Keane would be taking home the big money, but they were posted to pre-reg.com before I made it back to the interstate. I got 5th, besting last year's time by 3 minutes. Wick lost a little over a minute from last year, getting 11th and Frank finished in under an hour. Good ride and already looking forward to next year.

Adam shot 2.3 bazillion pictures which will be posted post haste.

    Too hot for a hill climb. Would have preferred a day with arm warmers.  All of you guys did great. I'm going to do the Lexington Road River Relay next year and hand off the hill climbing to someone skinnier. Great to see all of you and Thanks for all the great photos.
