I just want to say now how proud I am of all of you. Cam gets 7th in the A's after dropping his chain in the beginning and chasing for miles. Peter Jr. almost cracks the top 20 in the A's racing against kids 2 feet taller than him. Kenny breaks away solo in the B's and still finishes top 15 while Ansel, still nursing a broken leg, gets 5th! And Alden slugs it out in the C's to get 12th out of a field of almost 30 finishers and he's also only 13! Lastly, Julian maintains a great attitude after crashing and having to hitch a ride. Very proud of all of you guys and really looking forward a great weekend of racing coming up!

Plan for week of April 19
Fantastic job at the race yesterday guys! You guys made a great showing and learned about riding in the pack and setting up for the final sprint.
Here's the plan for the week:
Monday: 1.5 hour plus endurance ride. We'll meet at 5 pm at the SH and do the Quechee loop with the optional Noyes Hill at the end. Pick-up will be at 7 pm from my house.
Tuesday: rest day, no training.
Wednesday: Holderness Race: Meet at the SH at 10 am, leave by 10:30. Arrive at HA at noon and drive the course. Registration at 1:30, race at 3:00 pm, home between 7 and 8 pm.
Thursday: rest day, easy 1/2 hour ride on your own.
Friday: 45 min. ride with a couple of jumps. Meet at 5 pm at the SH, check all the bikes, do a short shakedown ride, then load the van. Since we have to leave no later than 6 am on Sat. morning, all racers are welcome to stay at our house Fri night. We have guest bed / couch space for 5, plenty of floor space and all of the recent European spring classic races loaded on the DVR, so please do feel free. Kim will make her killer spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread, which is not to be missed!
Saturday: Turtle Pond Circuit Race: please pre-enter asap. We'll leave my house at 6 pm sharp. Races start between 9 and 9:30 am. We'll do the race and then head up to Gould Academy afterwards. We have permission to "camp" in the Gould Acacemy Gym, so bring your thermarests, sleeping bags and pillows.
Special surprise: I'm thinking we grab some lunch after the race on the way up north and, afterwards, stop in at Alpine Adventures in Lincoln, NH and do their Off-Road Safari Adventure. For those game for the adventure, bring an extra $30 (I'll subsidize the rest) and please have a parent complete this waiver and bring the original with you:
Sunday: Gould Road Race. I'll post the info as soon as I receive it. I believe the race starts at 11 am, so we should be back to Woodstock between 6-8 pm on Sunday night.
For parents, weekend costs will be as follows:
Meals: Sat lunch, Sat dinner, Sun. breakfast, Sun. lunch on way home: $75-$100.
Optional off-roading adventure: $30.
Entry fee for Turtle Pond is paid in advance when pre-entering and there is no entry fee for the prep school races.
Racers, please confirm with me who will be racing Turtle Pond/Gould/Off-roading all or part thereof.
