Title: Texas Time Trials 2009?
Post by aikigreg on May 28^th, 2009, 12:42pm

Too early to start the thread on this? I bet probably everyone knows what they're doing, but let get into it. I've thought about the 12 hour and trying to beat Dennis Johnson's record of 180 miles, but I'm open to any other possibility, though I think the 4-man record is going to stay since that At&T pro team beat us by 2.5 hours last year.

What are y'all thinking?

webite, for those who dn't know it, is www.tt24tt.com

I'll try the max distance my body will take on a solo attempt unless something goes drastically wrong before then. Right now, that seems like the 12 hr. We will see......

Actually, the AT&T team isn't pro, and their record may fall this year, a few of the masters I know on that team are aiming for the "youngsters" record.

You should be able to take the 180 mile record easy.

I'm planning on the 500 mile version.

I'm up for the 500 mile mixed person team & 6 hour shoot out.

I'll probably just be a volunteer this year... although my best lap time last year would have gotten me third in the single-lap time trial! I was going to do the solo 200 last year to go after that record, but Greg talked me into Team Lowracer...

I'm also in for the mixed( I think I am the mixed part of that mixed team) 500 and then also do the 6 hour race. I only [smiley=puking.gif]need to get 117 miles for the record on the women 6 hour.

I'm definitely in for the mixed team if you guys are. Team ride = fun, solo ride = hard, fun > hard.

Take Care,

I like Los Cuchinos too. Gret idea Steve.

We can beat our 4 peson, mixed team ride time last year. Dexter's team, who had a later start eclipsed our mixed team record by only a few minutes. We should have a "time" goal for this year, and then begin to work now to exceed that goal. Peddlin' Peggy - do you want to set the goal for us, or how about letting William set our goal [smiley=jawdrop.gif]

Speaking of William, Angie is going to give me the gift of "coach" as a father's day present.

Ray, in my opinion, Nelson should set our goal ,since he's the team captain. In the upcoming months, we should meet as a team & establish a ride order & time goal. William can coach us as individuals, but not our team. That should come from within.

Congrats on a coach, William is a good guy. Now,we;ll all have TT helmets.

As opposed to: :D

Los Cochinos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Studio album by Cheech & Chong
Released 1973

Los Cochinos ("The Pigs") is a 1973 comedy album recorded by Cheech & Chong. The Spanish term cochino is a derogatory way of referring to a pig, as it also means "dirty", in contrast to cerdo, a more neutral word for a pig as an animal.

How come I keep getting volunteered for captain? I've got no goals really but to have fun, and generally to be crash and puke free at the end. You guys have coaches and are way faster. I'm just lucky to be on the same team!

If Peggy's on the team, shouldn't it be Los Cochinos y Chica?

Don't get her started Bud. She'll throw the word "pretty" in there.

What about The Pretty Los Cochinos y Chica? And we can paint our TT helmets pink [smiley=cheers.gif]

I ain't buying it all! I remember a certain rider(um NELSON) zooming away from all of slugs on the 400K LSR ride in Cleburne, AND last week at during the 200k in Mineral Wells. You're captain 'cause you got the experience & have the proper temperament. Tell me again, how you did on the Crit course this week?

I have the ride schedule from last year. In my opinion, I would rather do double pulls(especially in beginning since Peggy & I are riding the 6 hr shoot-out after the 500 miles).

No double pulls last year.

Post by FlyingLaZBoy on Jun 2^nd, 2009, 7:39am

Brad B. and I did double laps last year, near the middle of the schedule, and it worked pretty well -- my second lap time was only about 3-4 minutes slower than the first one.
