I did the Monster Cookie this weekend too. My wife and a couple of friends wanted to do it but none of them have ridden that far yet this year so I was the designated puller. My wife told me to keep the speed between 16 to 18mph, so I put it at 17 and pulled the three of them for 60 miles. I only ran into two people who I thought were jerks. We got passed by several large pace lines, but they didn't bother me. We passed a few kids with parents and offered them encouragement as we went by. The ladies had a lot of fun, which was the whole point of it. The biggest problem I had was that I took in more calories than I probably burned thanks to those tasty cookies at each rest stop.. I'm a sucker for macaroons....
