LSC Training Camp Day 3

27 riders on day 3. Warm and windy was the order of the day. We took in the climbs of Money Creek, Houston, 109, and 25 to give us another full century. The Houston sprint was very animated today, with a group jumping early. It was a headwind sprint, and came down to a 3 way drag race between Frye, Dave Meyer, and myself. It was a photo finish between Frye and Meyer, and they agreed to the draw.

Rotach and Dave Meyer showed Atherton some fresh legs on the climbs, but Alex was up to the challenge.

Donimator brought Skibby down for the ride today, and, as expected, Donimator walked away with the heaviest rider competition at a fit 243lbs. He sure didn't ride like a 243 pounder. Skibby weighed 141lbs.

Jordan accomplished his 3rd century in 3 days, but not without incident. During a rest stop, he was chatting with the guys with one foot unclipped, when a gust of wind came along an literally blew him over. He was unhurt, and it was pretty funny.
