Well ,it was his bike, so I guess he had the right. I will ride it again soon.

H"NH, I was never a fan of that ride(too many idiots), when they changed the start format, I bugged out(too much risk, not enough reward for me). Smiley

I got in two great training rides this past weekend, so I'm happy with my decision(we'll see you guys at the TT's anyway).

The start was a little interesting. I know I was considered a little rude by some as for a while I was passing on the right side of the road and heard some people calling out not to pass on the right, but if they hadn't been so rude and been keeping towards the right where there was plenty of room for two bikes to ride side-by-side, there wouldn't have been an issue. But I was calling out so people would know I was coming. After the first 90deg left turn I waited patiently for a while and then got a little tired of the same thing so started gently passing on the far left when it was fairly safe, calling out as I approached so I wouldn't get run off the road by people weaving in and out and gently tucking back in when a car approached. Way to much testosterone for so many people moving so slowly when there was room for them to be moving so much faster...

But once it cleared, the ride was fabulous. My 31st century ride this year. only 3 centuries behind my desired average of one a week.

Thanks. Seems to me I wasn't terribly clear on a few issues then. If I can clear things up any, please let me know. Still learning but it's really fun to learn on such a fabulous bike. I'm starting a run on a power meter for the bike finally. Will hopefully be really informative. Expensive, but I think it's time I got a little more serious about it.
