barlows Wanna-be Posts: 87	Re: Marko Polo permanent 7/6 Reply #15 - Jul 8^th, 2008, 2:55am Yeah, in hindsight I think we kind of goofed up. I stayed back with Truman after the first rest stop and we saw quite a few other folks that had popped trying to keep the early pace. For the record, you guys is some fast b**ches!! Steve

Although, it does look like I missed quite an adventure with my 18 mile shortcut. I'm sure, with a few more days like Sunday, I'll get my legs bent into shape in record time.

Brad - don't worry . Once you get a lighter bike, you'll be beast enough. I'm still regretting introducing Steve to bents anyway, since he'll be the fastest guy in Texas once he gets his bent legs.

Ray - I thought you were coming to this Shindig? I was all set to let you ride the bike yourself. I'm going to leave off comparisons until I have some more long rides under my belt, but initial reports are very favorable!

I'm in it to Schwinn it.

I'm not worried at the least. A new frame set is already ordered and I have a soft commitment on selling the C.G. Now begins the waiting process. With the 650c wheels in the mail to me, I'm pretty sure I have everything I need to finish it out.

I will be at the 100k this Sunday. I think the Petty's are coming as well. Nelson - any chance you could ride the 100k this Sunday?
