Hopefully you didn’t miss today…Today was soooo exciting!!   First off there was an ambulance that swung around Rio Salado and onto the bridge right about when we were going over the bridge. In the middle of the bridge there was a firetruck, police and another ambulance.  We caught a glimpse of a naked guy face down on the ground in cuffs as we rode by.  lol  Then on when going down Oak heading out there was a nice big landscaping trailer going fast but not fast enough to get behind.  Justin grabbed on and got away but then hit the light on Thomas.  There was a Ben-Horin sighting sporting a nice bug catcher.  Joe DeMars was finally denied on taking all the hills on hill 3, which was a huge relief to us all!!  He still killed us on hill 5.
There was a fast breakaway that started right off the get go when coming back.  Chuck and his daughter Lily were on the tandem going mach 5 along with two other riders when a little SUV going mach 5 tried to go around the roundabout at the same time as they were.  I don’t think I’ve ever seen a tandem slow down so fast, defied the laws of physics….really. No one got hurt, no one went down, just the evil eye from the driver.
On the sprint Aaron and Durrant were out front just far enough to get behind a huge truck.  Aaron’s yelling for Durrant to catch it took all of his energy and Durrant caught it and went around to take the sprint.  No chairs and tables outside at Starbucks, employee took the keys home. We sat inside at the big table for once. Hoss made the shot indoors!!!
