Nice, fast ride in this morning. I was struggling at first but then sat in the pocket of a speedster on a fixie after he passed me, he was flying. I caught up and let him pull me along, all the way from the airport to the DC side of the 14th street bridge. He then turned toward Hain's Point and I continued in to work. It was a lot of fun, we must have been averaging low's 20's although, I'm only going by feel since my computer has been off the bike for about a month.

Also, I did my good deed for the week yesterday. I came up behind a guy on a nice Masi road bike. I was looking at the bike as I waited to pass, and noticed that both of his wheel quick releases were in the open position. I mentioned this to him as I passed but, he didn't seem to understand. We both stopped and I showed him how to properly tighten his skewers and secure his quick releases. He had simply hand tightened them as much as he could. I explained how to adjust them and that a properly adjusted and closed skewer will apply much more clamping force than he could possibly do by hand tightening. I felt pretty good that he could safely finish his ride without the possibility of (both) wheels falling off (patting myself on the back right now).
