RA Veteran Profiles: 2007
Riders
 |
- OC – OC stands for Outta Control, which is OC's MO. OC has never gotten the hang
of our training ride routine which is: Meet 6:30 AM at Starbucks, ride a 22-50 mile
loop and have coffee. Sample of common OC suggestions are: "Hey, let's meet at 8:30",
"Hey, wanna ride with me to my daughter's soccer match?" and "Hey, wanna ride with
me to my office?". For the record no one has ever taken him up on any of these offers
(though we have accepted his Ibuprofen which he hands out like Halloween candy.)
Motto – "Hey, take no more than four tablets in 24 hours is only a suggestion."
- CC-Rider – CC-Rider seems mild mannered, but his claim to fame is the notoriety
of riding the 1st "Cyclecross" bike on the RA tour. For those of you who are uninformed,
the cyclecross is basically a road bike on steroids. (Remember when we thought the
Utopia was the "Dark side".) Motto – "If you want to work harder on your hybrid,
that's your decision. I'll meet you at lunch"
- Wonder Doug – Wonder Doug is the second “Roadie” to do the RA tour. (Who can forget
Uncle Frank.) He rode circles around the rest of the RA riders. No, I mean it! He
literally rode circles around us. Motto – “Let’s close Ed’s Canal Pub!”
