Figure-8s @ SpeedTrap…
QIC: Zuck
Date: 07/29/2019
PAX: Interference, Beverly, Bueller, Winklevoss (WD), Zuckerberg (WB and QIC)
Not that it comes as a huge surprise, but YHC was running late today. That said, YHC doesn’t typically run late when Q’ing. Lots of factors (or excuses) contributed, but nonetheless, I found myself direct-messaging pax in hopes that they’d see my cry for help. Not sure if they saw it or not, but when YHC arrived to the launch-spot, 4 pax were patiently yet eagerly waiting… and maybe looking at their clocks (shaking their heads and looking at YHC with disapproving gazes)…
Nonetheless, we took off…

COT
Prayers for us to continue to hold each other accountable and to trust each other; for our confidence in God because He is in control; and for unspoken prayers. Also prayers for @Bev’s upcoming work presentation.
NMM
- Strong work by all! Great way to get in some “track-like” work, and not be on the track. Fairly flat but just enough hills for that extra #downpainment. I’m a fan of this figure-8 course.
- Thanks to the pax for their being understanding of my tardiness.
- @Bev is the most tan he has been in awhile. He says, being tan makes him look fat, or wonders if too many poolside IPAs. @IF suggests that maybe tan skin just weighs more. @IF is a doctor.
- @Winklevoss had fun. He said so.
- @Bueller? was a beast.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
- #Shmedfest – August 24th! Be there, or be square! (Also F3+FiA Convergence that morning)
- @Winklevoss has Q @ #BnW and @Bueller? has Q @ #Conspiracy – this week
- New #F3Gears group has started in #WS as well – if interested in riding, be on the lookout!
