[Sportsandrec] Cycling Competition

[Lori]

Kelly,

Just say the word if you'd like me to put the feelers out for competitive 
pilots.It is unfortunate that things work this way at times, but for my 
first two races someone else found me a pilot who I knew nothing about and 
they showed up and I showed up and we jumped on the bike. Now, this is not 
ideal, but I am grateful that I had a network of people to work with. So, I 
do my best to continue this. Write to me any time off list as I can't 
remember if you are in Wyoming or Montana, or am I way off? If I don't know 
anyone personally, I can connect you with others who can help and I'm 
thinking Ron probably has some good ideas too. In fact, if you are anywhere 
near JacksonHole, one of my former training pilots moved out there.

There's nothing like true miles, yet Karissa W did a majority of her 
training on a trainer because you can do intervals and control your 
training.

Lori
