Mmno. :-) I have yet to successfully complete a 400! Plus, we've
got the Fitzsimmons Family Heritage Tour to Ireland this summer; I've
only got so many weeks I can take off without pay (says the
contractor). But the bike is going to Ireland with me, for when the
spousal unit is golfing.

Kevin, I should be at 3 Capes unless the weather is super dismal.
It'll be my 4th time doing it so I don't feel like I'm missing
anything if skip it. I just haven't been getting enough rides in.
Seems like all the dry days are when I'm working. Two of the last
three editions of 3 Capes have been re
Kevin - it was great riding with you!

After we left Birkenfeld there was this thick light steady rain that
hung over us until Vernonia. When we got back on Timber Rd it cleared
up but we were all just feeling a little cooked.
At Glenwood I used the Magic 8 Ball app on my phone to ask if it would
rain on us before the finish at Forest
I think I might have had more fun than you. My fingers froze in
Vernonia, and my thumb VERY PAINFULLY returned while I was descending
Stoney Pt, but other than that, it wasn't THAT bad... The sun after
the Birkenfeld store was wonderful!

Nice photos. Didn't see any of me but that's probably because I was 100
miles behind you. :-)

Congratulations for seeing it through (he said, enviously); it sounds like
the recuperation regimen will be a very pleasant one: book (and beer), then
movie with someone you love. I'll watch a movie with my daughter tonight.
(But not Miley Sirus or whoeverthehellsheis.)

I really tapered off riding after Oct and have pretty much refused to
ride in the rain if I could avoid it so my base miles are off. Last
weekend I crammed by riding my Quickbeam last week. I did a 30 mile
flat ride Sat, 30 mile mixed terrain ride on Sun and then a 100k,
mainly flat, ride out to th
My 200k was substantially more favorable. I did the Santa Cruz
Randonneurs Moss Beach 200k. It was mild, partly cloudy, some
brilliant sunshine, and not a hint of rain. I was counting my
blessings already, but now I'll recount them. Good on you, Mike, for
grinding it out.

you guys are real troopers. 150km of it in the rain! And then you
posted your pictures! Us SoCal guys would melt in that kind of
weather.
