The first day on my new job, I sat next to a woman who heaved an exasperated sigh before starting work.

Dear RSC peeps, I had big plans to come hang out today. I was going to do an easy 30 mile loop in Dover before planting myself at the coffee bar for too many hours. And because it’s so beautiful out, I even slathered on the sun block. Maybe it was the weather, but I [...]

“You’ve really been pouring it on, huh?” Jeremy said, when we met up at RSC a few weeks ago. It was the week I did my first RSC group ride, which was followed up mid-week with another lesson in how to close [gaps] with Geoff and Dave N. The next day, we were back in [...]

“Wait, are you trying to psych yourself out?” Jon asked, on hearing my well-worn excuses. “No, I–“ “You don’t understand, that’s what she’s been doing for the past three weeks,” Dave N. cut in. The subject in question was, as it has been for the past three weeks, the Ride.Studio.Cafe Sunday rides, but Dave could [...]

I may be dating myself in reference to this album but that’s what this week has been. A good thing, maybe, as these past few days, my fingers have been busy tapping the sides of a coffee cup, not a keyboard. But all that caffeine and hanging out hasn’t been for nothing, as I’ve been [...]
