Clemson Training Camp Day 1

The Chicken Ride.

Cold and misty conditions are in place for the training camp kickoff. I thought weather like this was sure to scare off most anyone, but the group was a large pack made up of Clemson area riders, University crew, the clan of the chicken (us fools) and a few folks hiding from the frozen climes of Asheville.

I met a seasoned looking rider named Colin who coaches some of my Trek teammates; Andy Mills and Caitlin Thule. We talked training mumbo jumbo for who knows how long.

There’s nothing like good group ride conversation to keep your brain off the pain of numbing hands and feet. Some even took short cuts on today’s foray! Shame, shame Ian. Rest assured, we enjoyed the hot food Ian so skillfully cooks for each of these rides that have become the making of Clemson lore and tradition.

Happy trails!
