I haven't done a 4+ hour ride or race in a few weeks so was planning on spending quite a bit of time on the bike this weekend when I found out about the Nixa bike ride this Saturday.
I signed up for the 70 miler and last night put some semi-slicks on my epic. I won't be able to keep up with faster roadies but hopefully will find a group I can hang with. I intend to push myself pretty hard. The worst part is the 7am start but it's supposed to be in the 80s by mid-day so that might be a good thing.
The good people at A&B Cycle offered to let me demo an S-Works Tarmac during the ride, but last time I did that I bought one. I'll stick with the Epic.
About Me
- Mark Gullett
- I'm a lot like Elvis. I'm not famous, I can't sing, not much of a dancer and I've never driven girls crazy (at least not in a good way), but I love fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches. Okay, I'm not that much like Elvis. I wish. Anyway, I was born and raised in Springfield, MO and although my life has taken many (too many) twists and turns, Springfield is my home. You might notice that I'm really into mountain biking. It's true, I ride whenever I can and wonder why more people don't do it, but it's not my only interest. There's my wonderful girlfriend, my great family, my genius daughter, my three awesome dogs (dingo, kupfer and CiCi), my bipolor cat, 4-wheeling in my Jeep, my ps3 (psn: hotshot34), and programming. Oh and adventure racing.
