I kinda realized that the end was getting near when the Maryland Department of Transportation sent me this:
It would appear on my way to Rockburn, I flew through the EZ-PASS lane at 61 miles an hour. I can only guess this was the toll before the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel. Whoops.
When Diane asked me about it, I had no recollection of doing anything weird, or out of the ordinary. I have been on the I95 pretty much every weekend since Puma Cross back in September, heading off to a race each weekend morning. I must have confused one of the normal EZ pass lanes for a “high speed” lane. Like I said, “whoops”
I love Bad Andy, Your 4 time PA Cyclocross State Champion, but I also will admit that in this victory salute, where BA is holding up four fingers to represent his fourth title he kinda looks like he is having a seizure. Just a little.
Despite my legs that still felt a little heavy from the beating I took at the MABRA champs last weekend, it was my Tuesday night with Jeffy and LWeb. Fun as usual.
Spent the day listening to Damn Crooked Vultures. It’s like Queens of the Stone Age or Eagles of Death Metal with a real live shot of Led Zepplin. Yeah, that’s about it. I like.Thanks for reading.

Hey now... you don't want to anger the EZ Pass Gods. Their wrath is terrible indeed, and even if you don't end up with a ticket, you will end up in EZ Pass Jail - the long lines at those frickin' tollbooths. Lose the EZ Pass for 6 months and you'll wish you'd spent a weekend in the hoosegow instead - the total amount of time you spent sitting still staring at a man in a uniform in a 72 hour jail sentence would be much shorter.
Dude I think the high speed ones are only 45 right?
I think it really begs the question: If it still worked, why do you have to slow down? Obviously it all goes through at 61.
I always wondered just how fast one could go thru EZ pass, I'll definitely be stepping it up now.
sigh, MD is charging 1.50 a month just to own EZ, gonna get one in PA to save those $18 big ones per year.
digging Jeff's new hi-viz bar tape... Did you also get the letter saying that your EZ-pass will now work at random places like the Syracuse International airport?
Damn Crooked Vultures do indeed rule. They sound like QOTA because they're a Josh Homme side project (much like Eagles of Death Metal - he co-created that band with his childhood buddy Jesse Hughes). The Led Zeppelin groove suggests that Homme is perhaps laying off the speed these days, or he's just taking his sound in a different direction with this group.
