I only saw one lady wipe out from the slick roads. But I did see about 6 people fall over while trying to stop because of their clips. And...I was one of them. My first fall. I was more pissed I fell on the drive side of the bike. Things look OK though.

I couldn't believe how many flats I saw. Those thin slick road tires must be really weak.

My wife bailed at the elementary school rest stop because her knee/IT band was killing her. Luckily we live right behind it so she just went home. I did the 20 miles back to the finish line and the car, raining the whole way. My bike shoes had puddles in them, and I was soaked all the way through everywhere else. But, it was still a good time.







Finish line. Soaked.
