As it stands I have 4 guys racing and training with me on the road wearing the Baen jersey. We are doing between 150 and 200 miles a week.

I raced in the local Thursday night Intermediate race 2 wks ago and took first definitively.

I moved up to Advanced last week for the first time and took 10th - out of 30. I also pulled my teammates up to finish in the top 5 in the final sprint.

On the mountain bike side I am still racing alone there. My next race will be sometime in Aug. There was one this Sunday but...there is also Libertycon.

I would like to find enough for a team to do the 24 Hours of Adrenaline race in Georgia in Oct. That is a 24 hr mountain bike race and I would need at least 3 others in good cycling shape.

So, there ya go. Doing as good or better than I expected to be so far. And maybe next season, Team Baen will really be clicking.
