Sounds like a lot more fun than mine....'This is the peleton....this is you falling off the back of the peleton....This is you riding all alone in the wind and cold for 20 miles..."
Someday....
With the always interesting reports from Mark (report said heavy headwind... my face and eyes were wind burned from sitting still watching my son's little league practice last night - the winds were brutal!) and you (sloppy, wet, and cold first race) I've lost my fear of commitment and have decided to do my first race next week. Your summary above is comforting as I'm sure it will be representative of my ride
