John’s pretty bike really turned this ride into a super sharp ride.
Crossposting: Monday 7/29 6:00am - 7:00am (Meet at GAP) Skills workshop with Jim Nelson — topics flexible, but right now skills covered will be: bumping, pack safety/position, anti-crash skills (braking, bunny hop etc).
Highly encourage everyone to attend skills workshop ^^^^

Workout Wednesday is on for tomorrow - race winning intervals. Come win some races. 6:30am GAP
Solid Workout Wednesday with Coach Will this morning- we worked on opening some gaps and winning some races. Will definitely be helpful come race day!
Tomorrow. 6am. GAP. Look Sharp.

We'll ride 90ish minutes, at super hardcore mega slow piano piano piano pace, while we discuss Alaphilippe, Rich's Étape hotness, and post ride cookies vs. donuts vs ice cream.

Join us, it'll be easy fun.

Wear your best kissena kit, and come looking sharp. 




sweet solid ride this morning

Pyramids, 10x2min Vo2max, 40/20s, the options are endless. Dealer's choice. I'm the dealer. Come ante up!
Friday. Look Sharp. 6:00am. GAP.

We'll ride mellow for 60 to 90 minutes, discussing Saturday's L&C tactics, and Kevin's hot sprints. Saving it all for the race, we will take it stupid awesome slow piano piano, but might include openers.

Easy fun. Come join.

Wear kissena kit. Look sharp.



sweet ride today, we kept it mellow, rest day style...

Why do I always look fat in these photos?
Workout Wednesdays will not be structured tomorrow as my schedule is a bit up in the air. I encourage anyone to train as we've been doing, and you may see me out a bit later than usual for a spin. However I cannot commit to the usual time tomorrow. 

We will continue as usual next week
Tomorrow 6am. GAP. Look sharp.

You know it: We'll ride stupid easy laps for 60 to 90ish minutes, come join, wear kissena kit, look sharp. Will be awesome easy fun. 

If late, wait, we'll orbit around.



Workout Wednesdays is on tomorrow 6:30am GAP
Tomorrow, look sharp, 6am, GAP

We'll ride mellow mega pianissimo for 25ish miles. Likely discussions: L&C strategy, adding Van der, or Poel to our last names, and Richard's sock selections.

Wear your best kissena colors, socks, and even water bottles. This is likely my last look sharp for a little while.

Here are examples on how to look sharp:

I love the painting style of the second picture.

Why is this your last LookSharp for a while?
Looks like Jeff, Anthony and Patrick are about to drop the hottest album of 2019 in that second picture.

I fixed it for you. This is a little more correct.
That squat is below parallel. 
Super sharp ride today. So sharp that we did an impromptu clinic on shaving legs beforehand. Thanks to @cpulvidente, @RichFreeman, and @eloy for their extensive background on this topic. Silky smooth legs here we come!
today was a specially sweet look sharp, thanks everyone for coming out and being awesome! 




I'll be out there tomorrow, GAP 6:30AM
I'm trying to keep the Look Sharp tradition going tomorrow. GAP 6:30AM, Kissena kit/colors and a nice mellow ride to ease into Friday.
You got to add pictures to this post... Otherwise, it's not LookSharp.
That's absolutely true.

Examples of how to Look Sharp (national champ edition):

@Matt Budofsky count me in. 
If it’s not raining, the “pretty bike” will be there.
since the road season is winding down, i will no longer hold structured workouts on Wednesdays. 

but i'll be out there orbiting between 6:30-7:30. would welcome some company for spirited riding if you spot me. 
Gonna be out in the park looking sharp at 6AM tomorrow for anyone who wants to join. Trying to keep it mellow and relaxed
