We got three books signed. One is personalized to us, the others are generic. Yes, he is taller than I thought he'd be! He's also way funnier and far better looking.
There were about 350 people at the signing. He was very surprised. He mentioned it at the airport today also, nobody expected that kind of turnout and it was more than the one in his hometown even. He did mention to one of my co-workers that if he comes back and we know that he'll be here, to talk to him about going for a ride. I think I would be intimidated

That he was. I wasn't here for the blessed event but others saw him. Everyone kept saying just how nice he was.

I'd love to go for a ride with him. I wouldn't be intimidated. If he wanted to stay with us, he would, and if he didn't, we'd see his butt for a minute.
I'm game!

Cool picture! I'm jealous, but so glad that you got a nice picture of you, the Mr. and Mr. Coooool.
Ride with him? Heck ya! I might have to max out my HR and hold on for dear life, but I'd stay with him for the 25 seconds that I could....

saw some of my friends from the Redmond Cycling Club. when they saw Floyd last night; one of them invited him to ride Ramrod. He said, "I'm not ready for it, i can't"
so she said "Greg LeMond rode Ramrod with us, but he didn't finish" and Floyd replied,
"Well, I'd finish"
So maybe he'll come back some time and ride with us..
