Love the pics - especially the one of you almost falling in the water :) We did this race last year and had a total blast. Congrats on 2nd place! That's a fantastic accomplishment. Wanna do it solo next year? ;)Michmashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17939793913481206320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003884923219008714.post-73907601738596785272007-07-06T11:27:00.000-07:002007-07-06T11:27:00.000-07:00Race [MTS] well done. Story well written. Thanks.<BR/><BR/>For somebody like myself, who has never ridden anything other than a fat tired Schwinn bike a couple of miles in my youth, I found your description of the "strategy" of shared drafting in bike road racing - really interesting. A truly "fleeting symbiotic relationship".<BR/><BR/>Evaluate each of your neighbor John's propositions with due caution and care. If you don't, you might end up riding your mountain bike to a place called The Maze Overlook some time in the future.
