TNT Kickoff at the San Francisco Marriot

Today, my Solvang TNT ride was canceled. So, I was able to attend with Rick the official Spring Season Team in Training.  The sports for this season are triathlons, marathons, walkers, hikers, and cyclists.  We met our coaches: 
Jacqui Crist: who is an experienced endurance cyclists: deathride, triple crown, RAMM, Triple bypass etc.

Mike Gifford: who is has the same qualifications

Kim Collier: sports nutritionist, USA cycling coach, and a racer

Sascha Messner: pro cyclist for the European team and endurance cyclist. Love his accent

We have two honorees cycling with us Adrian and Grace who are both in remission!

Our team has 5 mentors: Janet, Alex, Amy, Greg, and Peg.  Our Honoree Captain is KSue, Community Captain is Steve, Web Captain is Dale and Sag Captain is Sherri.  Our team manager is Merla. 

I am very excited to see 35 participating members that is committed fundraisers for the Society.  A majority of us are TNT alumni's and I am looking forward to riding with my friends from the past and hope to meet/make new friends.

Our training calendar for scheduled training rides will be 1904 + miles and 148,100 feet of total elevation.  Watch out Markeleeville!

Thank you all who has donated to my cause. Please note the link above my picture if you would like to make a contribution to my cause.

Cheers
