TRQ

The day started with YHC pulling in on 2 wheels, late for his VQ at The Rock Quarry. Fortunately, the PAX had circled up and had yet to choose a substi-Q for the morning. We quickly proclaimed the F3 creed and began warm-a-rama with SSH...

Hollowed out Volcano

On a rainy morning YHC planned for Trivia Tabata under shelter. Unlike the last time this was the plan it actually rained. It wasn’t so bad. Boomerang and I started and thought we may be the only ones when Ziggy rolled up, successfully...

Go for Coffee or Not

As this was the last Thursday of the year, YHC was wondering how many PAX from the normal TRQ crowd would arrive. YHC was later than normal, but still on time to see only Green Acres and Mongoose waiting. Maybe this would be the day for coffee...

Celebrity Guest Q
