...and they're smiling wincing for the camera!
 
So that's what the front of the hammer group looks like.  When I did the ride, I was about half a mile back dodging the exploded riders who were falling back.  Great fun, though!
 
Paul, do you remember what the top speed was on that sprint?

This one in particular was 22-23, because we were into the northeast wind that had kicked up Saturday morning..  most times, the sprint is 25-30 around the top, then we turn into a south / southeast wind, and very few can keep up...
