Welcome from central Alabama. Glad you joined us. DH has a time trial coming up so we are working on that. This time of the year we are usually on the mountain bikes.

Hello from the traveling sparker. I'm rarely in any one place for more than two years so right now I'm in Georgia. So I guess hello from GA.

Best of luck. You are an ambitious person! I grew up in your neck of the woods and still enjoy a trip South occasionally to see old friends. You certainly have a beautiful area in which to train!

Hi there. I am new to this team but not necessarily new to cycling. I got into mountain biking, or more like trail riding in Florida, about 10 years ago. I haven't done much of that in a couple of years, but plan to start up again this winter now the weather is bearable.

I borrowed a road bike from a friend for a triathlon in early 2007, which was the first time I had been on a road bike in probably 30 years. I bought my first road bike last February and usually do at least one ride a week. I would like to get into road riding a bit more, and of course do a century one of these days soon. I also would like to do a multi-day ride.

Lately I have been training for some running events (my first half marathon is in 2 weeks), but after the holidays plan to spend more time in the saddle to train for an April sprint tri.

Glad I found this team!
