Expedition Man, August 25Scott Herman, Newsletter EditorExpedition Man would like to introduce the inaugural Endurance Festival featuring Northern Nevada's 1st Ultra Distance Triathlon. A unique course that starts swimmers at Zephyr Cove Resort in the beautiful southern part of South Lake Tahoe, NV. The 112 mile bike ride will utilize a variety of Northern Nevada's scenery including a 1,400 ft elevation drop into Carson City. The day ends with a long run along the Truckee River Trail finishing at the Legends at Sparks Marina.All the necessary information needed can be found at www.expeditionman.comWith well over one hundred athletes from Nevada alone, this promises to be a most competitive Tri. Alta Alpina's own Allen and Linda Biaggi, Briana

Biller, Rob Cleymaet, Bob Gagen, Alex Kuhlmann, Pike Reardon and Marc Evans, not to mention numerous other local athletes will be competing for glory in this one!There's a half Ironman and a full-blown Ironman Triathlon for any who dare and gives our area another option for first class racing, be it running, swimming or biking.We truly are blessed to live where we do...especially if we are athletically inclined!Volunteers are still needed and there are sweet perks as well!Hope to see you there.

Presidential PostingMel Maalouf, PresidentAs August rolls around it is HOT. I will lead out with a tip on riding in the heat: don't. Ride in the morning or late evening. If I have limited time to ride and my only spot to ride is in the heat, I will ensure I am well hydrated. Just before I leave on the ride, I will douse my whole body: hair, head, jersey, shorts and even my socks/shoes with water. It is quite cold to start, but it seems to cool down my core on a steamy day. I stay cool for the first 30 minutes at least. During the ride, I use what I call sugar-salt water. Most energy drinks do well in their combination carbs and electrolytes, but you should find what you can stomach. I also use insulated bottles with some ice in them to keep the liquids cool. As a rule of thumb, you should drink two bottles an hour, so you will need to stop at water stops or buy some Gatorade or equivalent about every hour. I have mental spots where I can stop on longer rides. You should also think like a grand tour rider and drink and eat right after the ride to ensure the rest of the day is

not spent on the couch.As far as club happenings, we have some BBQs for volunteers and a summary of postmortem to wrap up the Challenge. We had a great crew of volunteers that made the best Challenge yet for a supreme set of riders. As August rolls around it is sad to see the club race series come to an end. If you haven't tried it yet, you should and if you want to round out the season with some last races, those opportunities are few. But as the road racing draws to an end, I love to turn to the knobbies on my mtb and hit the trails. There are a few days left to go out and help with the amazing trail building that has happened with our friends at TAMBA and others. Cooler weather and shorter days means that we gotta get out there and ride on the dirt or road if mtb is not your cup of tea.Ride on,Mel.

AACC Member Profile:Rufus Allen BoltonAACC Member since: 2005 (that is when I was born)

Current Residence: Gardnerville, NV

Immigrant from: I was born in Big Bear CA and came to Gardnerville as soon as my Mama Dixie let me go to my new family

Bikes I ride: Well, I actually run along side my mom and dad's tandem or their other bikes when we cruise around our neighborhood. I can go really fast and tend to pull them along. I also like to pull dad around on his longboard. I don't get it when people say my legs are short???

In one word, my cycling style is…: support

Favorite Rides/Races:The Thursday Night Road Races, diggin holes and lickin sunscreen/lotion from everyones legs is the best on Thursday nights. And, I do offer my encouragement to everyone by barking from the side of the road.

Favorite Post-Ride Food:Everything

Other Sports & Pastimes:Well, leaving me home is not an option for mom and dad, so I go cross country skiing and snowshoeing, I show them the best ways to go. I love to sit on the front of of moms kayak (someone needs to tell her how to paddle around). Riding on the back of the big motorcycle with mom and dad is soo much fun, but don't make me wear my helmet or doggles! I sit on the tank of the other motorcycles with dad too, that is really fun, I love to lean into the curves. Hiking and

bouldering a is blast too, again, what is with the short leg comments? I keep up just fine and on my own! I enjoy Geocaching with mom, I am known as Cach Snoofer. I am up for anything!!

Other Pastimes:Basking in the hot sun. I like to work on my belly tan.

My Motto or Inspired Quote:“Food is good, More food is better....Show me the COOKIE!.”

Grab Bag:I really love being out doing everything and seeing everyone.
