Don't forget we are still riding on the weekends - beginners on Saturday and intermediate/advanced riders on Sunday. Be sure to keep communicating on the forums as needed. There are a lot of century rides coming up this fall that might match our club's sense of adventure really well. Stay tuned!

We have only three more weeks of Performance Cycling left for the season. There are two more workouts, then our final time trial on August 17th. There have been a lot of empty bikes the past few weeks as the tri season has been in full swing. Please be sure to take advantage of the remaining classes! We'll start PC back up when we kick off next season in January! We've all come a long way since that first time trial! |

Good luck to all Ytri triathletes competing this weekend! The Rockford Olympic triathlon on Sunday, August 1st is the last race in our series. We also have some folks competing in Michigan at the Ironman 70.3 Steelhead on Saturday -- if you can make the trip, our Ytri folks would love your support!

As we approach the final stages of the tri-season we have had less and less interest in the group speed workouts at the Palatine track. At this point we would like to direct individuals still looking for speed work to participate in the Fast Track Racing sessions at Harper College on Wednesday nights. Warmups for these sessions start at 5:45 PM. More information may be found at their website: http://www.fasttrackracingteam.com/
Mark P. will be there to help get new YTri members oriented with the groups procedures, but none of you should feel like you wouldn't be able to perform well with this group. All that is asked is that you bring a $1 donation for track rental each week. You will not be required to "join" the racing team.
I think you will all enjoy this immensely!
Update: See the note below from Mark:
There are 4 different pace groups running each week with Fast Track.
It sounds like everyone who participated in the speed workouts with our club will fit within one of the groups with Fast Track.
So far, Mike , Chris , Rick ,Warren, and KJ have run with us at Fast Track.( I'm probably forgetting a few as well.)
Let me know if you'd like to join us and I'll keep an eye out for you.( send me a message thru our website)

I apologize for the last notice, but due to a combination of high heat index and the fact that most participants either raced last weekend or are going to race this coming weekend tonight's track workout is cancelled.
We'll resume again next week weather permitting.

If you are coming to the YTri party Sunday afternoon, please remember to bring your old running shoes. We are collecting them and donating them to an organization that sends them to areas where runners can not afford expensive new running shoes. So remember to throw your old shoes into the back of your car, and drop them off at the party.
