Got to meet team Felix outside of Union, MO today. They are from the UK. Real nice folks. The rider came by and I tried to catch up with him. I ran off the darn road into the rocks and grass.   Then going down hill at about 28 mph, I tried shifting to my 3rd chain ring, instead down shifted to the granny. Tried going back to 3rd, but the momentum was gone. It was too darn hot and humid anyways. I had on my sandals and they were slipping all around on my sweating feet. All in all, had a good time anyway. Everyone I have met so far have been real nice. I have met people from Sweden, Germany, France, and the UK this year. Also several from the USA. They will ride 500 miles more in less than 10 days than I have for the year!
