BAM Cycling Group: Lunch Ride #17 - That Moment When You Realize....

Thursday, March 5, 2015

Strava: https://app.strava.com/activities/263525094

Attendees: Shannon, Vince, Vin, Mitchell, Jaffe and Seon

That moment when you realize...

...how cool it is to see everyone in the same black jersey riding together as a group
...how Vince constantly likes to take off and try to leave everyone behind
...when it may not be me being slower necessarily as it is that everyone is just better and faster
...that Back Bay should have signs indicating it's closed BEFORE we arrived there
...when it's not as important to be the fastest as it is just to be with the gang
...how exceptionally nice the weather is riding through Ocean
...that traffic lights can certainly string out a group but that safety is still priority one
...that climbing a hill and getting a flat is much better than when descending
...how Shannon is always there for me (and others) just when you need him. Thanks for sticking around and the spare CO2, as well as the moral support
...that cleaning my bike should be more of a priority given Shannon's reference to my bike chain looking like it's covered in motor oil
...that there are moments when it isn't about just getting back the fastest and that the team recognizes this while waiting at the top of NPC...all of them
...that flying down NPC trying to catch Shannon, Vince and Mitchell is about as useless as trying to share a zebra steak with a lion (wha?!)
...my attempt to give Shannon a lead out on Bison will be capitalized by everyone but Shannon
...how I love our Tuesday and Thursday lunch rides

Thanks for coming out, gents!
