Work is going to keep me later than expected. I'll be there a a bit after 7, closer to 7:30-7:45. Will the door be open? (Don't want to buzz or interrupt anything.)
Nov 25, 2013 at 09:40 PM

Bump!
Will schedule this soon.
All new members,old members, folks with questions about what to do in winter, how to set up your season, take note.
Dec 04, 2014 at 03:52 PM
Sorry I've been slow on this.
Reached out to Redbeard bikes, our new shop sponsor, and they'd love to host us for this. on the negative, few chairs. On the positive, ample bike parking.
So, onto dates. Time would be 7pm. Can do it Tuesday 12/9, Monday 12/15, Tuesday 12/16, Thursday 12/18.
If you're new to bike racing or have questions about what to do for training in the winter, or how to set up your own training program, you owe it to yourself to come out for this.
Here's what I've written in the past
It is as it suggests. A talk focused on basic training concepts.
Traditionally, the talk is set up around the start of December. This is for many reasons, but the biggie is that it is around December that many start either planning their next season or start to train for it in some way or another. It's geared for people who are newer to structured training with the goal of racing bicycles, but everyone is welcome.
We've been doing this for many years. Comes with a handout. And there will be a quiz. On the road. In several months time."
If I could insert a poll here, I would. After a few responses, I'll set up a Doodle poll.

I've been to JP's talks in the past (pre-baby life mostly), and they are rock solid. You should go. It's one of the tangible benefits of membership. Take advantage.

12/9 is the best time for me followed by 12/18 and 12/15.
Dec 05, 2014 at 12:21 AM
All dates work for me, thanks
Dec 05, 2014 at 01:11 AM
12/9 is the only day that doesn't work for me on account of my office holiday party. All others are good. Really looking forward to this, thanks!
Dec 08, 2014 at 04:42 AM
Yang puts 12/9 first, then 12/18 and 12/15
Cham states they all work
James only has a problem with 12/9
So 12/9 is out.
I think I'm underselling this talk.
It will UNLOCK THE SECRET OF TRAINING.
you will BE STRONGER THAN EVER AFTER GAINING THIS KNOWLEDGE.
YOUR TRAINING ACUMEN WILL JUMP SEVERAL LEVELS IN AN HOUR.
You may even will a million dollars.
Who's in?
Dec 08, 2014 at 06:25 AM
I'm good with any of those dates.
Dec 08, 2014 at 02:21 PM
12 -9 best for me thx
Dec 08, 2014 at 02:59 PM
Folks, this is why you joined a club, to get invaluable insight from experienced racers like JP. Even if you've been to one of these talks before, I've found that you can still learn new things. This is also a great way to socialize and get to better know your club-mates and race buddies!
Dec 08, 2014 at 03:12 PM
Great. This looks really useful. I'm good for monday or thursday
Dec 08, 2014 at 03:15 PM
I'd love to join. However my schedule isn't consistent which means I can't commit to shy particular date. i'll have to play it by ear with which ever date works for the group. If that's ok?
Dec 08, 2014 at 03:40 PM
12/15 or 12/18 for me.
Dec 08, 2014 at 05:47 PM
Would love to go! I can make it anytime between 12/12-12/17.
Dec 10, 2014 at 03:50 AM
12/15 for me
Dec 10, 2014 at 07:56 PM
LOOKS LIKE 12/15 HAS IT!!
ADD IT TO YOUR CALENDARS.
Looking forward to seeing you all there then.
Bring questions.
Dec 14, 2014 at 10:56 PM
BumP!
12/15/14 7pm @ Redbeard Bikes
get there a few minutes early and pick up your Stages Powermeter, look around the place, thank Ilya and Kasia, maybe get yourself a gift or two.
Then, we'll sit down and talk training. Set up your year now. Winter training is the foundation of your racing year.
Do it right and you'll go faster, win more, be happier, and have Jeff White filling your bottle with Mexican Coke whenever you want it.

@Yacks - If you're serious, I'll ask if we can hook up to the shop's wifi and tune you in. Google video call work for you?
Dec 15, 2014 at 06:18 PM
