Thanks for asking.

Cleveland (my first) and Columbus. I'm thinking about doing Columbus again in the fall, but haven't really committed to it mentally.

The bike's fine. I saved everything with my face and hands. The only damage is on a non-functional part of the brifters that I didn't even know what they were called ... Shimano's exploded diagram says "name plate." They're mashed on both sides. Definitely a part of a bicycle that is NOT supposed to land on the ground.
