Old Inflexible men are the only ones that can afford these things. His Cervelo RCA is 12.8, this one is the "Endurance" bike. He also bought a 13.5lb Aethos from us...

He's Italian so I figure this all a front and he's a Mob Boss. He has 2 houses in Short Hills across the street from each other for his friends to use when they're in town. Probably has a yard filled with bodies.

Looks like we're getting some rain for at least the first 1/2 of tomorrow's 200k. I threw on a 3rd cage to run a Repair Keg and will pack some rain gear into my Pika Revelate on the saddle. I have a feeling the route isn't gonna be super fast so might as well have a little layers buffer.

This ride was difficult. Seemed like a ton of DNFs.
I went away with the lead group, there were 7 of us. At some point I realized my fitness wasn't quite ready to match their pace so I dropped off the group.
Maybe 20ish miles in it started to rain pretty good. Eventually it was a whipping hail and forced me to stop and put on my rain gear. Yes, I started in shorts and SS Jersey 🤣
Before the 1st Control, 1/2 of that front group turned around and went home.
It rained pretty much up to the Turn-Around. Then it was 60 and sunny for the rest of the ride.
I'm not writing anymore things because I'm tired.

I had to stop at the top of Thatchers to cover my arms. The rain was just too much at that point of the ride.

Yesterday I saw a couple small groups riding Rt12 East out of Frenchtown - rain gear and top tube bags - that was likely this event?
Nothing better then hanging with your tribe at live tribal beats, way to keep your tradition with your kid.
