Las September, I did (most of) the Civil War Century, out of Thurmont, MD. Alas, I had some ... issues... and had to take a sag back to the start. In the van, we had a woman from VA with a beautiful new Seven ID8, painted a metallic rust and quite pretty. Buried deep under the other bikes in the back of the van was my own, unpainted, Seven ID8, a year older than hers. We chatted for a bit. Not much.
Today, I was riding back from a loop through Rock Creek Park with a friend of mine, and I passed this woman on a beautiful rust colored Seven ID8. I complimented her on her bike. She complimented me on mine (I was on my older Seven Axiom today). I grasped at straws. "Did you do the Civil War Century last September?" Yes. "Did you have to take a sag to the end?" Yes. OMG...we shared the van together! It was the same woman! How strange was that???
Small world....
