Near miss.

This Saturday was the second UO group ride. It was pretty quiet and social, which made it prime for Stop Ahead sneak-attacks. I rolled upnext go Galen and said, “I’m going to beat Will.” Galen cranked it up and we went flying past Will. My victory was certain now. I jumped from Galen’s wheel. My left foot came out of the pedal. I crazily swearve and skid, tripoding on my carbon soled shoe. Amazingly, I stay upright, rather than slide uncomfortably to a stop on the pavement. Not crashing = awesome.

My cleat had exploded on impact with the ground. People behind saw the pieces fly. I could still kind of clip in and made it home okay. I got some new cleats, needless to say.

The Sunday ride was awesome. David led us over thr epic Weyerhauser road and onto some super smooth and fast roads before destroying everyone on Dillard.

This post was written on my iPod. Woo!
