Team "Those Fing Bents" prep thread

Ok y'all, team name is a go, so get your apps in.  Considering haveing some t-shirts made  with the RBENT logo and team anme on the back for team and crew.  We need to talk about a day for the team itself to get together and ride the course once more all 4 of us together, and dutie, crew, food, accommodations, and all that crazy stuff.

Sunday would work for me, but I may be spent.  I have a team training ride on the DF on Saturday.  The following weekend ?  9/6

Sundays are bad because of the church having it's services, but either the 6th or the 13th will work for me - Mark, Paul?

Copyright the word Fing. I can just see some smart sports marketing firm using that word.

Master Paul have you made a final decision?  Are you going to do the 500 solo or ride with that team with the anti-social name?   Smiley

By the way, for general knowledge, I believe we've changed the team name to something less potentially offensive...  as in "Reclining Flyers II"...

Let's do the Cleburne practice run on the 13th, shall we?  Although I think that's the same day as the '"Patriot Pedal"...

Just talked with Scott, Mgr at Performance on Walnut Hill and 75, and he's going to donate some nutritional stuff to the TTTT cause -- I'll be getting it on Wednesday....

8AM rollout at the TTTT course this coming Saturday, like we've done before?  Or should we perhaps do it in the EVENING, to do a night riding version???  Say a 6:30PM start, with the 2nd lap and more requiring lights???

I'm going to be there in the morning with Lindsay.      You can do all the night stuff you want.     My lights still are not 100% on the bike and I"m not feeling motivated enough to fix it by then.

I think morning is better anyway.  I've got plenty of night practice by now and Mark hasn't run the course yet at all, so it'll be better for him to check it out during the day.  8am rollout sounds great, and then afterwards we can have lunch at the Purple Turnip and discuss strategy, who's bring what, etc.
