David: Congrats on getting the IT band worked out & making a metric. I see from your speed averages the affect of the on-shore winds. You shoulda called. We did a modified Back Bay Loop today, swinging north into Newport to check out some door hardware. We were within a couple of miles of each other. Found a new bakery, conveniently located next to a bike shop called, somewhat immodestly, "Bike Religion".
