Waiting in line for the start... hoping
l'autobus won't move much faster.
100+ miles, 6500' elevation gain, 40-50mph wind gusts, pretending I'm Peter Van
Petegem on one mile of gravel bike path, riding next to Tyler Wren of
Colavita/
Sutter Home for 100 meters, and a pint of Fat Tire Ale all inured me enough to meet the one and only
Bobke himself: Mr. Bob Roll.
