That was pretty nice of y'all to fix Andreu up with a ride. At Montreal Worlds I was quite surprised to see many pros/amateurs leaving race bikes laying around unattended. Probably not a great idea for Richmond. Took an old 3-speed up to Montreal & while I didn't get no respect from the crowd at the youth hostel it was a good choice since some folks got wheel damage from big expansion joints on local bridges. Motorcycle cops were pretty aggressive during pro road race: some rode about 1 m away from curb & would aim at feet of any spectators not off the roadway.
