One is Complete and Other Starts

May 25, 2010: Yesterday, Sunday, was the start of a new program, The Challenged Athletes Foundation, Million Dollar Challenge. It was a great way to start the new program with a ride up the coast to Oceanside and back covering 40 some miles. The wind was in our face on the way up making it seem like an uphill climb.



We broke off the XX1090 Radio contestants and rode as a separate group. In a few weeks we'll let them break off into the other groups. Our first elimination will be July 7th so be sure to tune into the Scott and BR Show to hear that. They come on each day from 5-9 AM.



The previous day was the San Diego Century and the final ride for the Trek SuperStore spring training program. We had well over 80 people at the start. What a way to finalize the program and the weather was perfect. A little cool but as the went on it never got too hot.



I'm looking forward to assisting with the next program but have handed over the Saturday details to another coach, Bruce Milikin. Bruce is bringing some fresh ideas to the summer/fall program in preparation for the Tour de Poway in Oct. As an example, July the 4th, the training ride will be the Poway Old Pros ride but the short course, 28 miles. He also has planned a Bike Expo at the La Mesa Trek store. I'll still be helping out but Bruce is driving the bus.
