Newest team member!!!

I would like to introduce everyone to Team Jarlos' newest team member and first fan, Mike! He finally got the nerve to join us for a ride this weekend. Without a "cough" holding him back, he manned up and rode 30 long, trecherous miles along the Centennial Trail! The ride was from Snohomish to south Marysville. Here is a pic of Mike (don't know what he's doing) with Marysville highschool in the background.

At the start, you can tell Mike was getting a little nervous. His cleats wouldn't let him fully clip into the pedal but he said screw it and we were off. Thank God for nice weather, especially after what was the worst sunday of my life last weekend. The ride was honestly so easy (even on my old piece of shit) that there really isn't much to talk about here! Just glad teammate number 5 finally joined in!
If you notice in the pic above, we're all holding the number 25 with our fingers. Reason for this is the last two miles of the first half was a pretty gradual downhill slope. Mike decided to take off showing off his insane bike skills. Soon after that, CLos passed me and I screamed out "I CAN'T HIT 25!!!!" This is because on my old piece of shit bike, the fastest I can go is about 25 mph, but it takes a force of God to get the speed up that fast!!!
