Your 12 year old is training for such a long ride? That's wonderful. I
am training for a 25 mile ride on my birthday. I will think of your daughter as I am training for my 25 mile ride for MS. With the weather in Jersey, it seems the only training I get lately is at the gym. I hope the spin classes help me gain strength. I really want to get outside and start testing my endurance. Riding a stationary bike is probably quite different from riding 25 miles outside. Hopefully I will get the chance to get outside. If it ever stops raining. :-) Good Luck. Maggie |

"Claire Petersky" wrote in message nk.net... It's official, now: my 12 year old daughter will train for the STP for 2005 and ride it with me. The first day will be ~108 miles to Chehalis, and then we'll do 100 the next day to bring us into Portland. This will be three weeks before she celebrates becoming bat mitzvah in August. Training begins in January. I'll keep you all posted. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky please substitute yahoo for mousepotato to reply Home of the meditative cyclist: http://home.earthlink.net/~cpetersky/Welcome.htm Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky That sounds great Claire! You guys will really enjoy the ride together. Next STP will be my fourth. Unfortunately I didn't start riding until I was 59 and don't have many "under my belt". The first two were on my single, last years was on the tandem with my wife and next year will be a one day ride. My son and I are going to start our training right after New Years in the SW Washington/NW Oregon area so we'll have lots of rain gear at the ready! Pass on our kudos to your daughter, you'll have a great time. By the way, do you know the ending point this time....still downtown or are they going back to the St. Johns bridge area? John |

See: http://www.cascade.org/Community/for...&threadid=1930 Me, I'd much much prefer St. Johns bridge, but I think there's too many people who want the thing to end at a hotel. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky please substitute yahoo for mousepotato to reply Home of the meditative cyclist: http://home.earthlink.net/~cpetersky/Welcome.htm Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky |

oups.com... Is this your "pony" (trail-a-bike) girl? She used to ride the pony, but she's been on the tandem now for several years. We bought another tandem, so that the whole family can ride now. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky please substitute yahoo for mousepotato to reply Home of the meditative cyclist: http://home.earthlink.net/~cpetersky/Welcome.htm Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky |
