Jen, Tegan, and I headed back to Roch this past weekend to visit my parents. My brother and sister, Ben and Becca, came in from Milwaukee and Madtown for the weekend as well, so 4 out of 5 kids were home. Sweet....
After eating a ton on Friday night, Ben and I met Charly and Chris at Rochester Cycling and Fitness (aka "the shop") on Saturday morning. I had done a couple hard threshold workouts earlier in the week, so I was looking for some endurance riding. Somewhere between Rochester and nowhere, we found some sweet gravel roads. Charly did a good recap with pictures here: http://www.charlytri.blogspot.com/ . The motorpacing behind a huge John Deere was far to awesome.
After a brief refueling back at my parents, Ben and I headed back to the shop to talk bikes.... before the end of the day, Chris had ordered a CX bike (Trek XO2 ), and I ordered a road bike (Madone 5.5 with Ksyrium ES wheels)... Chris also had a bunch of other goodies like helmets, tires, trainers, etc. The shop is far to nice to us, and the longer I stay in there, the emptier my bank account gets.

Brendan,
Is VeloRochester registering for the MNSCS "Team" category this year? If so, would you like to send them our member list? Count me in for '07; however, I won't be at ALL the events...
