Blood Sweat and Gears

We did it. One of the hardest rides on the East Coast. David and I believe it or not did not have a beer(s) the night before, but Karl and Jim did. Only a glass of wine with the pasta. Great job guys on the ride. Had a good time and of course the post ride at the cabin was fabulous. I was very pleased with my time and actually finishing the ride 2 to three hours quicker than I imagined. I had to play catch up for 50 miles for I was tired at the beginning and had a flat tire. My group left me. That is ok, it was a challenge to catch up and I managed to do it. I only made one more stop the for the rest of the 104 mile ride. Looking forward to the beach ride, however there will only be two of us. Everyone is hurt. Now I have to hang with my brother for 280 miles and three days alone....I guess I will have to pull him the whole way except the down hill. Suck on my tire bro.
