Earth Day ride with the legislators in Montpelier
The team joined the Vermont Bicycle and Pedestrian Coalition for their Earth Day ride in Montpelier last Friday. It was a chilly morning, but well worth the opportunity to meet Nancy Schultz, Coalition Exec Director, as well as Representatives Willem Jewett (Addison) and John Bartholomew (Hartland). The kids were pretty pumped as you can see!:

Plan for weekend
Thurs: easy skill-building ride from the SH at 5 pm. VARSITY, JV AND KIDS
Friday: STATE HOUSE RIDE! Leaving SH at 5:30 am (I'll have donuts!), ride with legislators including stop at Red Hen Bakery, then stop for breakfast at the awesome Creek House Diner on the way home, ON ME! Come on guys, this is a great opportunity to show we care about bike safety. Let's make this a priority!
Saturday: two races, lousy weather at both:
Quabbin: PKV to take in team van. Erin, Stockman, Ansel, John, Brendan. Plan is to leave SH at 5:45 am (sorry for another early departure!). For food, I've found that the best bet for these early races is to just pack food and eat in the car. I'll eat lightly in the am and then pound a big PBJ sandwich about 1/2 hour before my race. So, please bring what you like to eat. Kim Vollers will drive team van as sag for junior race. VARSITY
Gould (prep school race): Scott to take in team Saturn. Peter, Jr., Alden, Kenny, Spencer, Allison, Jack. Saturn will hold 7 people (Scott plus 6 racers) and six bikes on the roof and rear racks, so roster is full. Plan is to meet at SH at 9:00 am to load bikes and leave no later than 9:30 to get to Gould in plenty of time to drive the course. Bring snacks and money for subway stop on way home. VARSITY, JV
Sunday: Happy Easter and Passover!
Monday: instead of kids ride, we'll do an easy preride of the KMS TT course at 5 pm. Meet at Skyeship Lodge at 4:30 pm. Van will leave SH at 4 pm. VARSITY, JV, KIDS (we'll take several rests on the way up the hill).
Thanks and think sun!

Results from last weekend
Check out the bikereg results page for the Dartmouth TT and crit and Newhouse crit from last weekend:
http://www.bikereg.com/results/2011/.
Great finish line pics of Erin at Dartmouth crit (womens intro) and coach at Newhouse (Master's 35).
Also, my result reporting was erroneous yesterday. Alden(burger) was 8th in the Newhouse crit with a strong showing and I can't believe I forgot to mention that our 9 year old, Carl Gebhardt, was 2nd in the kids division. Way to go, Carl!!!
Tomorrow reminder:
1) Meet at SH at 11:45. If you haven't had your bike looked at by Dan and had the gears blocked for junior gear limiting, please plan to get to the shop by 11:00 am to have Dan check things out.
2) We'll pick up Erin and Brendan in W. Leb at the 7 Barrell Brew Pub at 12:30 pm.
3) Scotty will have the team saturn, so we should have plenty of room.
Bring some snacks and we'll do the usual subway stop on the way home.
Thanks!
Peter

New KMS CT Asst. Coach!
Hi all:
Just wanted to let everyone know that Scott Smith, KMS grad and father of team members, Spencer and Allison Smith, will be serving as KMS Team Asst. Coach. Scott will be driving the KMS Saturn as an auxiliary vehicle for the prep school series and he will be taking the Gould Academy RR contingent to that race this coming Saturday. I'll post info on that race soon. Welcome, Scotty!
I'm not sure if Scott will look as good in the KMS team trucker's hat as Ansel: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NZZWoNlds3g/TazkEJDnWFI/AAAAAAAAUOo/pjkxAzgtj-Q/s1600/trucker%2527s+hat.jpg
