I'M GOING TO BLOG THAT.


If you ride with me or Caitlin, you are likely to hear these words multiple times a day. If you do something ridiculous, if you teach us something new or if you are committing a crime of spandex, we will blog about you. Consider yourself warned....

Yesterday (Sunday) was an unofficial ALC training ride....really, members of Team Cray Cray just wanted to enjoy the day and get ourselves stronger. We rode a nice 26 mile loop from Cynergy, our favorite-est bike shop in the whole world http://www.cynergycycles.com/, to Dockweiler beach and back. Add in a little fried chicken, biscuits and mac and cheese from Aunt Kizzy's Southern Food, and you have the PERFECT day.

The ridiculous shennanigans were at a low yesterday, and it seemed like we focused on team building and fundraising and eating. Marni, the newest member of Team Cray Cray and the 2nd highest fundraising in Los Angeles, imparted some of her enthusiatic energy and shared some of her fundraising secrets -- Marni has raised approximately $8,000 so far!!

We also mourned the loss of the Bike Whisperer's bedazzled bike bag broach to the crazy traffic in Marina del Ray. We decided that the broach got dead and is now waiting for the BW at the Rainbow Bridge......if you're lost, its okay. Cray Cray basically speaks their own language and you only learn it while sitting in the saddle.

And then, Ivy demonstrated how your water bottle cages (you must have 2 to participate in any ride) can carry other beverages besides water. Ahem, TECATE for Valentime's Day. Takes the edge off. And it makes your bike look classy when you carry a tall boy in a paper sack.

Hope your Sunday was almost as awesome as ours....but I bet it wasn't :-)
