It's hard following directions...

Hey everyone,

Today's practice ride went really well. The weather was beautiful and couldn't have been better. My group and I did, however, manage to get lost on the ride, and we wound up going 5 miles in the wrong direction. We had a good laugh about it though, and it was a learning experience.

After the ride, our cycling coach showed us a velodrome in the same park from which we departed. It was a time trial track designed for cyclists to work up their speed and skills, and we were actually able to ride on it in super fast pace lines. It was an exhilarating experience to say the least.

Tonight, we are being treated to an amazing sponsored dinner at Bucca De Beppo, and we're all really excited about it. This is our big Kick-Off Dinner where all parents and friends are encouraged to attend, and it should be very fun, but also very emotional.

Can't wait for tommorrow!
