But I catch up at the destination/rest stop at the subway. I hurry, knowing I got there later than everyone else. Stops here are usually 20 minutes or more, however.

So I stop off in the bathroom and when I get out everyone is long gone. I was there for a grand total of 9 minutes. This was a no drop ride, btw... WTH??

I almost made it back, too. Got lost a couple of times, and then started stopping for maps to figure out how to get there. I got a rescue after my crank spacer slipped, but at least that was after I rode by the new place.

Also, on the bright side I set a record for up and out the door. My alarms didn't go off (or they did and I turned them off whilst fully asleep), and I woe up coughing at 6:41. I was out the door headed to the start by 6:46 (group leaves at 7:00).
