Just a post-crash follow-up. As it turned out, my front wheel WAS broken, it was just the carbon fairing over the aluminum rim; but I am replacing the wheelset anyway. For now I'm using a spare front wheel. I'm currently in Matthews NC visiting my son & family, and brought the bike for possible rides. By now all my scabs are gone, although the skin still looks bad. I'll order some new wheels when I get home.

I had a club ride a few days before leaving. The fast pack took off before I could get out of the parking lot and they were gone. So I rode at my own 'best pace' which turned out to be 20.9 for 28 miles. That was definitely more 'brisk' than a normal brisk ride.
