Default Women's T-Mobile Team

Hey guys,

As I'm lazily sitting on the couch having my morning coffee, I look out the window and see the T-Mobile women's team and team car go cruising by. I thought it was a fluke, but have seem them 3 times now. Geez, if that isn't motivation to get out and train I don't know what is! Think they'd mind if I tagged along on my mountain bike... as if I could ever keep up with them.

Nice outfits.
About a week before the Amgen race I saw the Rabobank team cruising down PCH about a block from my house. Funny thing was it wasn't part of the course.

Once while we were just out doing some training for a tri we were going to do, we hooked up with the Saturns ladies racing team. Fun bunch of ladies. They told us they were in a certain training cycle and were not out to hammer that day and yes we could tag along. We road with them long after we were supposed to be back at work and our cell phones were ringing like mad, but we just kept on riding. Listening to their stories and there jibes at each other was a blast. One of my funner times on a bike for sure.

Oh yeah, I ride one of those bikes, not the team issue (mines yellow on carbon black).
