4 road warriors met at Shiplock Park downtown for the first iteration of the Century ride training team. Objective is to ultimately do a century (100 mile) ride to Williamsburg and back later this year. We rode east along the Capital Trail until we decided it was time to turn around and ride back. Summary stats for the ride: 33.8 miles in 2 hours 20 mins. Avg pace was 14.5 mph. The name for this OTB workout was inspired by Whittler’s bloody knuckles that he displayed upon posting. Apparently a concrete wall outside his domicile upset him so he decided…

A duo of Brogi regulaars took to the River Road Baptist overflow lot in the predawn hours to get limber. YHC arrived a bit early to ensure the conditions were clean, dry and pine cone free for the proper broga technique to be administered. According to Senor Frog who patiently watched from the safety of his vehicle, this is what went down. Standard Broga positions with emphasis on shoulders, back, hamstrings, glutes. Pigeon is always a crowd favorite with some Warrior poses mixed in along with Childs pose and plenty of tributes to Mrs. Fudd and Wilson. Good discussion finished…

11 warriors gathered in the early morning to test their might. Is that an FNG? Nah. Welcome back Cookie! Vagabond’s portable speaker/kettlebell didn’t work as planned, so the workout was accompanied by mumble chatter, sounds of exertion, and the clinking of metal.

With the menu all planned out and all the ingredients bought for dinner for our friends at the Daily Planet on Sunday night, I was ready to cook up the meal for 10: Baked Spaghetti, caesar salad, bread, and cookies for dessert. Then I happened to see Mr Roger’s backblast from what he brought the night before: Baked Spaghetti, caesar salad, bread, and cookies for dessert. I guess great minds think alike? Anyway, Oyster said it was no big deal, so one of my 2.0s and I brought the meal and it was joyfully welcomed despite the repetitive menu. If…
A pair of Brojii veterans beat back the holiday fart sack to work out the kinks before a moist No Toll beatdown. Today we worked shoulders, back, hips, glutes and quads under the foliage coverage surrounding the No Toll courts. Good to have Chaplain come out in less than ideal conditions.
