Slick Rick and Tom. Posted by Picasa

In the end our group had 60 starters, 45 finishers, I was 18th. I figured I had to get 30 guys in those final six miles. It was likely the best I will ever feel on a bike. I was disappointed that I melted down like I did, but super stoked that the final 6 miles. That was surreal. I was hurting, but I was moving. Sad to say this, but this was the first time I left Fairhill feeling good about my ride. The experience was delightful.
