Fun morning commute today. Overcast and cool air.

I was behind another roadie for almost the entire ride. He wasn't very fast but I wasn't in a hurry. It was one of those things where I could do a few crank revolutions, coast, and repeat.

We were meandering along and I spotted something coming up fast behind us. Slowing for a stop sign, a VERY fit woman on an MTB came up next to me. We exchanged hellos. There were people on the trail so she got between me and the other roadie and we had a little peloton. Eventually she must have gotten bored because she passed the roadie.

Then the race was on. It was hilarious to watch these two. The guy accelerated and tried to stay behind her, but gave up. I was just hanging out further back, watching this.

Right as we were getting into Burlington, the woman was very far ahead, and the roadie sprinted. I stayed behind him and we were cruising along at around 25mph. He finally took a left off the trail. I went to the waterfront to take a picture with my new cell phone. (Geek that I am.)

Still wishing I could get a commuting group together...

Want to see the picture I took? (I shrunk it. Quality is poor.)
