I can't remember the last time that I got a phone call from one of the club members who wasn't even on the ride, thanking me for coming out. I was sitting at home, half asleep, and Cheryl handed me the phone. She said it was someone named Dan Driscoll, and while the name was kind of familiar I couldn't put a face with it.

This would be that face, Mike...

He was one of the guys on a mountain bike, wasn't he? After the phone call I did a little googling and found a cycling page with Dan's picture on it, looking a bit more... eh... boyish.

I was impressed with the folks I met (and re-met) on Saturday's ride. It reinforces my belief that some of the true giants in the cycling community seem to be the nicest. Maybe it's because they don't feel like they have to try and ride you into the ground to prove they're faster/stronger/better/whatever.

Lie Back. Ride hard. Grin like a monkey.
