This year s assortment of courses was well designed and let the riders enjoy some great East Coast scenery. Chaffee gave some insight on what his first race experience was like. I thought you said we were going on a group ride. Evidently he realized soon enough and won his first competition. I really had no idea what was going on, but it was a great time.
Cycling does take all kinds and abilities.
Cardinal Velo has big plans for next year s season, besides getting female riders. The B.A. of the team, Sam Wurzel 03, fulfills his duty as head mechanic. Cycling is also one of the best ways to get out of dreary Middletown and explore some of the great towns in the area. From Higgie s Hot-Dog stand in Higganum to the Dari Serv in Durham, we ve seen it all. Taking rides as far south as Madison and Hammanasset State Park, we also get a taste of the ocean on nice weekend rides.
