    Somewhere between flat 4 and 5, this guy pulls up next to me and asks if I'm Yellow from BJ. I was dutifully wearing my new AV jersey, so I guess that's how he recogizes Yellow. I guess I was too amazed to ask who HE was.
    Anyway, luckily he had come along because my friend and I had already burned through all of our tubes and CO2. BJ man happens to work for a LBS (Bingham), and was carrying a backpack full of tubes and a foot pump. So handy to have such a guy around when you need him, as we soon had yet another flat.
    Yellow, did you make it down here for this ride today? I kept my eye out for you, but never did spot you.


    Great Job Auntie K!!!!! Congrats on your first Century

    That's too funny about Yellow!
