Biketoberfest 2006

Biketoberfest is always a good time, kind of the last hurrah for a lot of the Cyclonauts before the season wraps up. A few of the bike racers come, and most of the active tri folks go. Jim and Kelly hosted from their new crib and threw down a nice party afterwards. It's a great chance to catch up with people who we have not seen for some time and to relive some race / party memories.

For a lot of people on the tri team, the season is far from over with a lot of us running right through the winter, but that's for another day.

Here's what the bike looked like, 50 pretty casual miles over 3 hours with a couple climbs thrown in (first one was a pretty cool 6 miles) I think we exercised our jaws as much as our legs!!

Dan and I ran afterwards for a 1/2 hour, it's such a cool feeling when you legs release. The run looked like:

This run was particularly good for me because my HR got up into the 170s which hopefully broke me out of the low HR running funk that I've been in.

Below are a couple snaps from the ride:
