Chill. I read and understand. I just see it differently. I'm not saying that you rode your normal pace, but your post suggests to me that you didn't forget about your normal way of riding. There is a good article on page 59 of the October issue of bicycling about how riders of different paces can ride together. "All Together Now".
Maybe a flatter route would be better next time out.
