We meet in the town square, coming from different directions, and not always the same direction.
There might be a quiet greeting, but mostly it's staring. When the appointed time comes, one will speak up and propose the route for the day. There follows a brief discussion. When a route has been proposed with few objections, we ride.
We spend the next 50-70 miles trying to drop each other with everything God has given us.
The end of the ride is more of an evaporation. Each rider silently takes the turn off to his home until nobody is left.
