I was near the end of the group on Sunday, and was STILL having to chase down a 696.  I was able to keep up, but only through maintaining better corner speed.  It seemed like he had a TON more power  Don't even talk to me about Speed Triples.  Those things pull away like I've slammed on the brakes!

Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

Evening.

I've got to put together a "what I learned" list after this weekend-long group ride.  It's always interesting when all the rest of the bikes have at least twice the power of what you're riding, AND they're all good riders.

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

That sucks.  I hope she's feeling better sooner than later.
