The first time I heard the phrase "In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb," I was a second grader living up in Wausau Wisconsin. For those unaware, Wausau is in North-Central Wisconsin, about as far north as Green Bay. But not as metropolitan. Of course, the definition of "lamb" in those parts includes lows in the 30's, and snow on the ground.
Here in Austin, the lamb arrived this weekend. Great temps both days made for some comfortable short-sleeve riding. Only the wind detracted from the Saturday roll. Saturday, we had a great crew rolling from Lola. Rey, his buddy Chris, AT, VJ, MC, Panozz, Z, Me, Sean and Ullrich headed out for a dam loop roll at 8am on Saturday. Me, Ullrich and AT pulled a Cracker, ripping at Panozzo Point and leaving the crew to their own devices. Our ride was steady state, in preparation for a big ride with the PedalHard guys on Sunday.
The way out to PanozzPt included a brisk pace, aided by some tailwinds on 620. When we ripped, the stallions had dropped the pack mules, with Rey and Panozz long gone. Can someone post a summary of the long roll on Saturday?

I ended up doing the full Ausi. I was solo from Spicewood and 360. Great weather and enjoyed the ride. Not having to keep up with the stallions meant I could work on getting my heart rate lower.
Sunday, I did the Mod-Ausi starting at home. Again working on keeping out of the red zone and getting some time on the saddle. A little drizzle but not too bad.
