From PCG Coach Rickey Wray Wilson:
Yesterday, a group of us had a great time riding with Health's Angel and Peaks Coaching Group athlete Jacques Renaux on his big training ride - The Toils of Tolar. Distance was 120 miles to help him prepare for his big event in France, the 136 mile mountainous L'Ardéchoise (136 miles and 14,000 feet of climbing.)
Joining us for the first lap of 60 miles were Health's Angels and Peaks Coaching Group athletes, Fred Buehrer and Keith Nelson, along with Health's Angel Mark Gale, and Carson Whiting and Erwin Vanhaecke.
Going the whole distance with us was Peaks Coaching Group athlete, David R Cabe.
First lap went by quickly with lots of socializing, a few hot spots, and lots of fun. Second lap, it was getting toasty out there, and climbing those long grades into a brisk headwind sure made us appreciate the Shiner Bock beer when it was over.
Many thanks to all the guys for coming out and supporting Jacques on his last long training ride before his big event.
Here are a few pictures at the end of the first lap and one at the end of the ride enjoying our Shiner Bock beer.
