No kidding! It was something else. My brakes got so wet that the rear brakes began to dissolve. I had to do half the decent from Mt. Washington with only the front brake. Fortunately, I went to the bike shop in Copake Falls and got new front and rear pads.
So that was you! I was there in the red Hawaiian shirt, having already finished the century, and saw you emerge from Grant's bike shop with new pads. I think we exchanged some light remarks about water and brake pads, as well.
I ended up sagging an injured rider, named Lucy, back to Millerton in my car after talking to you. She had really done in her knee and her bike in a crash going down Falls Road in the rain.
