ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. so thats what happened. see, the main pack was so out of distance by the time i got to kirby, that i just decided to turn on king head towards yonge. it was my 3rd try so getting dropped north of rutherford was okay.... windbreaker pants, toe-clips, vintage steel bike and all!

* provided you can keep up with the main pack.
** but, if you can't keep up for 45km/h for 20mins, uphill, however, I think riding with any of the smaller packs, it may be easier as ur basically getting a tailwind for the uphill parts and a headwind for the downhill.
