Top 10 Things I learned on the Jesse Ride

10) Thor has officially outgrown his college/partying days... he's riding twenty hours a week and is in good enough shape to chase back on after a flat in the first half hour of the ride...

9) Sometimes, no matter how hard he pushes himself, a kid can't get his HR to climb above 160 BPM... momma said there would be days like this, there'd be days like this, my momma said... time for a few recovery rides...

8) It is possible to bonk Caren, but only after she has run 20+ miles the day before...

7) It is a good bet that Jesse not only knows every road in Placer County but has ridden on them... even if they are dirt...

6) Green Valley Road to Missouri Flat Road is a terrible route to take if Jesse is no longer available to route find...

5) Mother Lode Road is even worse than Green Valley/Missouri Flat...

4) Being on the front for three hours isn't that bad if you are riding at your own pace...

3) The Bakery next to Bicycles Plus is not open on Sundays... even if you have been on the front for three hours...

2) The Mexican Restaurant next to Bicycles Plus is really expensive. Spandex is not appropriate dress either...

1a) food poisoning is not conducive to finishing with the hardmen on a Jesse ride...

1b) vomiting is a really good way to induce bonking...

1c) newspaper is a good substitute for toilette paper when you are suffering from food poisoning on a Jesse ride... *editors note: DBCJRT does not condone stealing at anytime, even newspapers from somebody's newspaper tube, but will make exceptions in the case of explosive diarrhea...
