raced again with the group. couple things; firstly, i knocked someone off their bike :( in the sprint at the end i was in the lead and saw someones shadow coming up to my left so i started to move over that way to cut them off. my intended slow move turned into me flying over to my left. the riders tire who was behind me clipped my back tire and they went right over. i felt bad about it and was concerned but thankfully he had only cuts and road rash. but still, i did the wrong thing and hope i learned a lesson. after we finished i talked with him and some other riders and they assured me that even though i made a mistake that there was no hard feelings. im glad the people who ride there are understanding like that because it would have sucked to not be able to go back.

next is my odometer. it is inaccurate! it is running slow! meaning all the miles i have been posting and thinking ive been passing happened about 100 miles before hand! also, my average speed and max speed are low as well! damn technology, only good when it works. so i will be in the market for a new one soon. but i think ill wait til i get a new bike first :)

and lastly, i came in second! so thats it. im not going to post all the ride info anymore since it isnt true. but long rides, times and good stuff like that will still be posted.
