Anyone gearing up for the cycling season? I mean it's
really year round if you're brave enough. I have some 26
MTB studded tires that I loved to run back when I worked
close enough to bike.
What a great photo set!
I'm surprised how many had camelbacks on in the 1st
peloton! The bikes all look like they are gravel or
rigged for gravel bikes so it must have a lot of unpaved
sections in the ride. That one guy mugging was awesome
and some of them holding the line just super work.
I think the last big group ride I did was a Tour de Cure ride many many years ago out of Watkins Glen (yes where the NASCAR track is.) We have one near by called the Tour de Shunk and it's crushing
vertical in rural central PA that's beautiful. I never
finished it but it was beautiful. Mt Desert Island in

So, any pre-season tips for a rusty rider?
The problem is finding a good bicyle that does not cost more than 1/10th of a car payment.

here in North America and I'm wildly out of shape. I suppose Rule #5
still applies... I used to work about 10 miles from home and I'd ride
in and back and that was really the best part of my day. Now I'm an
hour+ drive for work and finding the time and energy is the struggle.

I'm not a cyclist (though I did a 60km ride on an ebike last year that
was a blast), but have a friend who rides and they got me a bit
interested.
Last year I got photos of the riders in the Belgian Waffle Ride Canada
(on Vancouver Island, BC). I forget the exact spot I was at on the
route, but I was about halfway through - so about 70 miles into the
ride. I had a great morning of sitting and snapping photos as riders
took the corner in front of me. If you're interested, I have a photo
album here: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjAFAEs
