Comments for Husky Cycling Team Blog http://www.huskycycling.net/teamblog A communal blog for members of the Husky Cycling Team Sat, 19 May 2012 13:11:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 Comment on Available rides by admin http://www.huskycycling.net/teamblog/archives/8#comment-5 admin Fri, 25 Jan 2008 07:42:28 +0000 http://www.huskycycling.net/teamblog/archives/8#comment-5 Since this blog is fairly new, I would suggest using the UWracing email list in order to reach all the members of the team. If you're not on the list, instructions can be found here: https://mailman1.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/uwracing When you're planning a ride, send an email out to the list inviting other members to accompany you. It's always good to state the hours/distance and the pace you'll be riding at. Since everyone has different schedules, there's a good chance you'll be able to find someone to ride with. It's unfortunate that you're unable to ride both weekends and weekdays, but hey, that's life. Now a little digression... What is your name and area of study? How long have you been riding bicycles? Thinking about collegiate racing? - Michael Since this blog is fairly new, I would suggest using the UWracing email list in order to reach all the members of the team.

Maybe there is a positive relationship to Husky Cycling and weight gain? I can't help think even though I feel faster how much faster I'd be 20lbs lighter. However I think I'd rather suffer on a bike than ever time I was itching for a Ben and Jerry's fix. I'll leave the Dr Pepper to Zahn.

But then again, I heard you generate more power if you weigh more. Who cares about watts/kilograms anyway? Michael Rasmussen? What a loser. Or you could switch to this awesome diet that I'm currently on. Make sure not to fill the water glass all the way, water is fattening. Only a tablespoon of rice. On days where you ride 5+ hours, you can help yourself to 1.5 tablespoons of rice and a full glass of water. Never cook the rice because when rice is cooked it absorbs water, and water is fattening. <img src="http://www.huskycycling.net/teamblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/ricewater.jpg" alt="ricewater.jpg" /> I would suggest switching to Diet Dr. Pepper and, if they sell them, frozen yogurt cones immediately.
