High-Fructose Corn Syrup is Killing You

High-Fructose Corn Syrup is Killing You

I found this on Facebook and found it interesting, so I'm re-posting here with their web site and their twitter account.

What You Need To Know About HFCS

Prior to 1966, high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) was virtually non-existent in Americans' diets. When it came to sweeteners, the number one version on the market was sucrose, or table sugar. But that all changed after the invention of high-fructose corn syrup.

Breast Cancer Awareness

Today ten of us (teamroll:) rode the Breast Cancer Awareness.  We rode the 50 mile route on an absolutely gorgeous fall day in Central Ohio.  It was a brisk start, but quickly warmed to the mid-70s by 11:30 AM.  The skies were crystal clear all morning, basically not wind at all.  It was a great day to ride.

We picked up some of @TeamSperanza along the road to make our peloton a little larger.  Team Speranza had a very strong showing.  I didn't count all of them, but I would guess it was close to 10-15 people.  They are a club our of the Canal Winchester area that ride a number of charity events including Pelotonia.  We have shared training rides and ride with them on a number of charity events through out the year.  Good group of people, so follow them on twitter: @TeamSperanza.

We only averaged 17.8 mph, but a lot of that had to do with missing a couple of turns and back tracking and then taking the all too familiar "yeah we got lost again" shot.  Not that we could actually get lost in Central Ohio, because we ride this area a lot.  But staying on the predefined course, well that is a whole other story all together.  Some say we are directionally challenged.  I prefer to think of it as we are trailblazers and prefer to choose our own path.  Yeah that's it, we're individualists, yeah that's the ticket.

Did I mention it was just a great sunny day with blue skies and no wind?  Check these pictures out.

teamroll: prepare for winter

We received our final mock up of our winter weight jackets.  This thing is light weight, reasonably thick for cycling wear and ridiculously warm.

Special thanks to VOmax for rockin' a sweet winter jacket with the warmth of an alpaca headed to the high north land on a cold winter's night.

The text around the inside collar: Kickin' My Butt Today to Kick Yours Tomorrow

This is how we roll:

Well there was a change of design and not really for the better.  The second edition has the right number of dots, and the we rock: we roll: etc: More importantly we get to give props to a couple paying sponsors, which is good.  But moving our web site from the bottom back to the collar basically makes it wasted ink and something that no one will every see, which completely sucks. 

This is what the the text around the collar says since you will not be able to read it on the jacket:
