Well, I guess there are advantages to being a relatively early-rising underachiever. There was a lot of (mediocre) food and drink at all 3 rest stops, and the 43 mile ride cue sheet didn't have any errors. We were having Starbucks in Easton by the time you finished, I'd guess.

Too bad about the mechanical problems.

It was a nice ride, but I'll most likely do a weekend of kayaking and biking on my own with a few others next year, too.
