Verdone in street clothes met us in the parking lot to say we weren't fast enough for him so he was gonna skip the ride... Do I have that right Jim?
This was a town ride. The plan was up putt-putt to game divide with a few members expressing a desire to ride ALL the way down Game then backtrack up to the west fork and down Ferrins to the Brewpub. Well, the "back pedaling" begin shortly after gaining the high point and we went straight to west fork and then up. One of these years we will actually see and ride the terrain below the west fork (or not). Highlights include a big, unwitnessed but audibly detected crash by Dr Bob. Quote of the day goes to Dave Saurman. recounting his recent race victory in Butte: " It was a really boring ride: no mechanicals, I didn't bonk or crash and I wound up winning!" Aha! I think Dave's onto the secret of success!
Dr Bob headed home to tend to his wounds while Les, Maples, Sourdude, Pampe, Kohlhardt and yours truly retired to the pub. As it so happens, St Marty's Holy Water is currently on tap and a pitcher and toast to Silvadore was enjoyed by all.
