Ladies Training Race

Hello, Ladies!
Okay, it’s that time again. The first collegiate road racing weekend is the weekend of the 25th, so let’s make sure we’re ready for it. We’ll do a practice race this Saturday at noon, meeting at the Sample Gates. This is truly a come one, come all event--anyone interested in racing should come check it out! If you’ve never raced before, this is your chance to see what it’s like. And if you are an experienced racer, here’s a chance to remind yourself what racing feels like. Regardless of your experience level, it’s an opportunity to get out there with your IU teammates for a great workout.

We typically do a lap of the Forest (down Bean Blossom), though last year we did an out-and-back on 446 (due to ice on Bean Blossom). Either way, it will be familiar roads so no one gets lost, as this is not a no-drop ride...but we will all ride out together to the starting point. Attacking is welcome, as is teamwork…so come ready to race! And of course, if you have a longer ride scheduled that day, you could always add on afterward.

This weekend’s forecast looks decent, but if Saturday's weather is crazy for some reason, we’ll reschedule for Sunday at noon. Please email me randikcox@gmail.com with any questions.

Come on out!

So how did it go?

It was great! We had about 30 or so IU girls, plus some of my friends who came out to help. It was exciting to see everyone working hard and riding aggressively. There was also some good teamwork :)
Nice job, ladies!

When it comes to real riding Wing it proves they have the strongest girl in the race this year. Moeller laid the smack down.

"real riding" = L5 therefore Theta (if they don't crash) will win. or Teter (if they don't crash). Or AEPhi (if everyone else crashes)
