I did it. Luckily, other than a blown knee, I finished relatively unscathed. Seeing that hit-and-run article kind of turned my stomach a little. I really can't wrap my head around what kind of space cadet could manage to hit a rider during an event that big. The roads were pretty well covered with cyclists, so you really couldn't miss seeing them.

I'm trying to put together a ride report, but I keep getting distracted. Hopefully, I'll have something coherent sometime today...or else you'll get a bunch of random bullet points with *'s to block out the cussing. LOL.
