Heh, Governor Hill had me panting a bit 'cause I'm so out of shape. BTW I see that the Richmond youth hostel is now open. I have the idea to drive halfway-down from DC to Richmond & do a weekend tour, in part to scout out routes for possible eventual DC-Richmond & back ride.
Also, just to remind everyone for the 99th time how awesome this day was, check out this video of our crowd on Libby Hill going nuts on the last lap-

I hope I can be in a crowd that passionate again at some point.

If you do that, you should email/facebook Bike Walk RVA. It's an advocacy organization run by my friend, and he's done that ride a few times with groups of people when they're going up to DC to support a rally or just for the hell of it.

Was re-watching end of U23 race last night, amazing how Ledanois held on for the win, real nail-biter.

Me too, on the local saturday worlds ride today, I was telling my buddy who I haven't seen in a while that I went to Worlds, was telling him all about it, such a good time, so glad I went. I need to get some pics enlarged and hanging on my wall.
