Today was an early start from Coach's house, out along Marine to 16th and then back along Marine to Iona. AM suffered a flat one minute before we were supposed to the leave the house but YAY she ended up joining us by fluke at the "Fraser Arms - is it still a strip joint?" stop. Then it was some sort of Iona-Steveston loop...turn left at the "church"! Sadly, we lost Catherine at Iona (damn rib!) and then Lisa somewhere on the way back from the "church" (damn Richmond!). Then the TFNB peleton shattered one final time just before the AL bridge as I need a pee stop (damn tiny bladder!) Somewhere after the "church", the temperature dropped about 10 degrees ("it's an arctic outflow!") and it started to rain. boo. AM and I had lovely ride back along the Cypress bike route to home (read - our fingers and toes were frozen little popsicles). A not so speedy change into running gear and then out the door to Speed Theory with AM running with her bike! Crazy triathletes & their multi-tasking! Speed Theory was mad busy so by the time we got out of there, we were DONE and ran the WHOLE FIVE MINUTES back to our house. Ha! Bricks are SO easy ;)
