That's very cool!

Yeah, I'd like to look like I'm smiling when I'm working hard the way he does.

I am just used to riding in corn fields :) I've never drafted and it sounds like that would be helpful. Someone offered to pull me a few weeks back when we were in Eagle Creek and the wind was causing one of my old injuries to give me a problem but I was afraid to take her up on it - I am not really accustomed to riding with others in general but especially not that close :eek: Those last 5 miles were just awesome I bet!
