There is one thing totally unassociated with school that the start of each year reminds me of. Namely that Cross season is right around the corner. If students show up on campus, that must mean that barriers and caution tape are getting pulled out of storage somewhere else. Last weeks "freestyle" Tuesday demonstrated that FT3 is ready to roll cross at the drop of a hat.
As for this week. The showing is bound to be light, but the tradition continues! I am out due to some start of the year events, and the camping crew is, well...camping. I do believe I heard some scuttlebutt regarding a satellite Tahoe based FT3 ride...reports will follow.

Two Days Until Things Get Serious
Tuesdays CX/SSFT3 was a dose of good medicine for me. As we gear up for another school year, getting out on the CX bike and beating myself up pretty good made for me appreciate the desk chair a bit more. After some tooling around on some short newer trails, we headed up to Park Creek and out to MET. There we crossed MET and took Cappy's Cash to Bonnetti and MET. From there we came down Rufus' Rage and back to the Knot Hole post swim.
Cap'n and Safety First made it up just in time for Taco's. Although I had to bail early, seems like a very successful El Dorado outing for FT3.
Who is in for Sunday Ride? Folsom Lake Loop?

National Bike Night Out
I don't know what the hype about some block party is...fool is CXSSFT3...it's a freestyle roll session.
Ride Reports:
Never did get a good ride report in last week. In the end, Ghost calculated us at 26ish miles with 8000+ feet of climbing, not bad. Although I am the first to admit not swim was a disappointment and the super late FT3 outing was killing me on Wed.
Sunday's ride was a breakaway special with Ghost and I doing the 193 - Georgetown - Cool - 49 loop. Great ride even though we got a bit caught up in the rafting traffic coming up 49.
Call Out:
Tonight is indeed National Night Out, which may impact participation a bit, because we are such a civic minded group. However too much of the pro family stuff will have us ending up like these guys -
Man that hits a little close to home...oh well, I will "roll hard" on the CX tonight and avoid the lawn for a while.
