Hey Kim! An older gentleman and I pulled each other for the last 6 miles, but not a "tall, skinny guy"!
Will your brother be doing tour of the Tucson Mountains? Does he live out this way?
He's in Chandler. He didn't mention the Tucson ride, but I don't think he likes to drive far for rides. He and my SIL ride South Mountain a lot, though. I'll have to tell him to be on the lookout for AV and BJ jerseys.
