It was great to see so many riders on the streets and bike trail today.
I was amused by all the "regular roadies" stopping at empty intersections waiting for the light to turn green at 7:30 on a Sunday morning.
After Wolfpack, CM, Ride Arc, etc., waiting for traffic lights when the coast is clear doesn't enter my mind any more.
Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

I got caught into this ride by accident... they rode by East LA and I just rode with them. Lots'o'spandex to my torn jeans.

Lots of spandex, I don't know what you mean.
I had a great time on the ride. It was very different doing a ride with racing teams rather than you all.

Just to be clear, I like you all better; not that the LACBC staff didn't do a great job putting the event together.

Some of us are them, too.
In fact, before I was here I was there.
Some of them were here before they were there.
That should explain everything.

I wear lycra under my knickers.
On long rides, such as this Saturday's Tern of the Century, I don't bother with the knickers.
Uh...I still don't stop for red lights.

On a ride above 40 miles bike shorts make sense, even if only to wear under something else.
Actually for any ride bike shorts are comfortable, ain't nothing wrong with sacrificing a little vanity for that!

Watch out for cops. The ticket for running a red is awful...
Hey I still need to get that spoke card from you, Creative Thing!

Alice,
I have been carrying that spoke card around with me for 3 months!
I.O.U. and Steveo4, and I hope to see Steve on Saturday. Why don't you join us on the century ride?
