just pics right now (and not a lot of the actual ride, as usual!), no
captions yet, journal to come later, next week some time, im sure...
itd be interesting to see if the pnw abandon rate was significantly
lower than the overall...
im subtitling this years narrative "the rone van vlaanderen called -
it wants its weather back"
the more i reflect on it, the happier i am with this years
performance - i rode smoother and faster, never once had a problem
with bonking or starting to fall asleep on the bike. stopped more,
chatted more, slept slightly less but more intelligently - generally
acheived all of my goals, including the primary one, of course, which
was to make it back to paris in anything under 90 hours.
may see some of you at crooked river, but thats still up in the air -
definitely at verboort!
