    Jo, this woman is riding where I used to live, you know, the area that SK had to educate me on what "rollers" were (I always thought "rollers" described rolling uphill terrain...go up a hill, flatten out a little, go up another hill, flatten out a little...you get the idea). I know better now. Sara is not riding on rollers.

    Sara: 13.5 mph average is not slow for that thar part of the world! I often had average speeds in the 13s or low 14s when I lived there (and that figures in the 40 mph downhills). You did a GREAT job!

    Oh, by the way, I rode 300 miles in a snowstorm, all on my 52x11 while talking on the cell phone and drinking lattes handed to me by Peter Reid.


    APRIL FOOL!

    (I can't believe someone else didn't do this before me.)
