TNT Dec 17 and 19

It’s almost Christmas… exciting times and lots of opportunities to overindulge in your favorites!

Tuesday, Dec. 17th – 6:30pm departure from Club Sport… new: we’re leaving on time
Fremont to Grimmer to Warm Springs Blvd to Scott Creek to Victoria Parkway to Evans and up Old Calaveras and down New Calaveras. Repeat and return. Bright lights are mandatory!

Opinion – while some find this ride scary, a group of cyclists on a dark road is easily noticeable for drivers. Most have no reason to climb Old Calaveras, so the real test is to assert yourself on the descent of New Calaveras. Take the lane and make sure your taillights(plural) are working. Fun stuff!

Thursday, Dec. 19th – 6:15pm start of paceline warm-up from Eureka and Stevenson… new: we’re leaving on time!
six lap winter paceline (5 together, last one ballistic)
two technique sprints
four short sprints (two laps, T2-T3 and T4-T1)
five laps tempo paceline @ 20-22mph. Options to hang with the group for as long as you like or zoom off the front solo and be chased. Why? Because it’s December and we’re building a “base” of fitness.
four short sprints (two laps, T2-T3 and T4-T1)
five laps tempo paceline @ 20-22mph (no rest in between)
four short sprints (two laps, T2-T3 and T4-T1)
five laps tempo paceline @ 20-22mph (no rest in between)
cool down 7:50-8pm
