BikeMomma, I'm so sorry about Andrew not calling you. He said he got your message but that "it sounded like you were squared away and everything." He's 22 and very courteous in some ways and a bit of a kid in others. I haven't seen Sherpa so can't figure out what he was doing either; he probably though Andrew was taking care of you. All the guys at the shop now call us Andrew's mom and dad but since we didn't actually raise him . . . .

Thanks for such a good write up on the ride. Do you mind if I share it with the team director? Was it David something or other that was the instructor?

Andrew normally goes to the Tuesday night ride only where they also have center line issues. There's a tandem that gets in the sprint mess there.

I hope to see you in Monterey.
