I'll do 6 if we can her enough.
hey josh- i won't be at supercross but can give you cash at the first session, if that works. or paypal, whatever you prefer.

8 is still better for me, but i'll do my best to be there before 7:45. wed. 7th works for me.
6pm slot
1) Perlberg - not in 7:45pm slot currently
2) Ryan J - in 7:45pm slot, would switch out
3) Ragot - in 7:45pm slot - would you drop the 7:45 or are you still thinking of doing a double ?
4) Nosson - dude, do it
5) Derek ? or do you need it to be later ? (either way, if we go to two sessions you are covered).
6) ?
7) ?
8) ?

7:45pm slot
1) Neil Ross
2) Jorge Aguilo
3) David Stearns
4) Joshua Caesar
5) Joe Mueller
6) Jeff White
7) Eric Ragot ?
8) Derek Chiles ?

Owens\Henning\Breed - you guys want to come back ?

The way I see it, we have 11 to 12 slots interested in, out of 16 possible. So this ups the price a bit. My suggestions if we want to run two sessions would be:
a) someone volunteers to be the organizer for the 6pm slot (I can't do both, too hard to do $$ collection when not being there)

b) we wrangle up 4 or 5 more folks (Kissena or otherwise) so that we don't increase the price per person (we pay the same price for the session no matter if we have 1 person show up or all 8)
Hey Guys --I would take a position in the 7:45 slot if someone moves out of it and into the 6pm slot.

If I don't get into a permanent slot, I'd like to be an alternate for 7:45 if and when anyone has to cancel for a given evening.
If we're looking to add people from outside the club to bring prices down for a second session, I know Vlad (Speedwell) will do it. Good guy, reliable.
I think we've opened it up to the club and heard from pretty much everyone interested. Open it up to others, I'm cheap and would like to spend less if we get the 6PM session together.
We recruited a few members through these sessions last year.
Vlad wants to do it, can I tell him to count on a spot in the 6?
we have to circle back to Ride Brooklyn - I'll do so today
Ttt. I'll be going tonight. 0.6 km course. So figure a 1 minute all out effort.
Yeah, I think I'm gonna go do this too.

Mattie do you know if this is broken up into fields/Categories - having not worked on my short efforts in months it will be embarrassing if I end up lined up next to Brian Breach or someone like that.
A and B field. I believe al will be splitting the fields.
I'm going to try and show for this as well...
Will anyone be live tweeting this event?
Well Joe, here's my play-by-play

(1) Rode to Ride Brooklyn
(2) Realized event was in Williamsburg
(3) Wondered why I would think an event that will probably attract 75 ppl would be held in a small bike shop
(4) Said, aw shucks, I feel like a real putz, and kicked the pavement a little
(5) Rode home
Oh dude...

Here is mine; daughter woke up after Monster-Nap, discovered splinters (courtesy of brighhton boardwalk) in her foot; missed my departure window and settled for post splinter-removal cuddles while watching Kung Fu Panda and browsing supercross photos.
@ Jules. Poor excuse. You could have explained to your daughter that she's not any girl, she's your daughter, the daughter of a cyclist who races hard, etc. and that given the equality between men and women she should be as tough and as hard as a racer. I know, she will look puzzled. Then you show her this picture of Azizulhasni Awang and tell her that because she's a tough little girl you'll bring her to watch the Fall Challenge:

@ Stephane: I love it. Sadly, the splinter(s) came out, and we ended up reading stories under a blanket in front of a roaring fire. Pretty much the polar opposite of a 1 minute maximal riding effort in every possible way. Wait? Did I say "sadly?" Yeah, the opposite of that too :)

Reserve the 6PM wednesday slot. we can fill it up. I will reach out to triathlete friends.

What is total payment?

i got seeded into the A field, because of power legs. it was single elim, my first round was against ariel of adler racing. i lost :( he won the whole shindig. avg wattage was 637 watts for a minute or so using platforms and boots. it felt like i was going to puke.
sweet fancy moses that is a lot of power dude
yeah ariel is in good form right now cant wait to see what he has when it's time to be in shape
Posted By: josephmuelleryeah ariel is in good form right now cant wait to see what he has when it's time to be in shape
i felt good that i didn't lose by much, considering i'm well into the get fat and watch hbo original programming periodization of my training.
I will commit to moving, provided the 6PM happens and provided it doesn't end up costing $40/session. If as Perlberg says we are filling it, then put me in the 6 and let someone else take my spot.
I put a Brooklyn tri club guy in contact with Josh, so hopefully they can send us some folks to fill the slots :)
@Josh --thanks, I will take the Dec. 7th spot if available. -Norm
Cool, thanks Mike.

745 guys - I need to get back to Jess soon re a date - I am going with Dec 7th unless we get some resounding nos. Tomorrow (Tuesday nov 22) I will get back to Jess. We will have a slot for an alternate that day (Jorge can't make it).

6pm guys - we are close! Couple more guys to go, let's see how many Perlberg Tri guys we get.
