That sound like a great plan. I had a blast today!

Juan and I just finished our 28 mile Maryland/DC ride. Awesome ride. You travel team guys need to make it up here for this ride.

 

Maybe next weekend?

Chris, that sounds great. Either Sat or Sun morning, start 9-10, is OK with me.

I was 55m from the finish line today. It was a pretty crazy sprint to the finish as a pack of 13 sprinted it out. I missed "The Wall" as they were calling it, a 22% grade short climb off of a tight right turn... it's beastly. I talked to one of the Litespeed shop guys who were out there, and they rode the course this weekend. He turned the corner and said "I'm walking this, guys," and I don't think anyone could blame him.

These guys were averaging about 25MPH for the 102 mile ride. With 3-4 climbs up the mountain and I think 7 climbs up "the wall", I just can't imagine.

Chris, Ben, Raffy... one day, you guys will have to come ride this route. I'll drive the support vehicle.

**BRENT**
