Recovery in the shitter 💩 again so my goal was to sit on the back and suck wheels all day. This was advertised as a 16 mph ride. There were 20 of us and the first rise in the road caused a separation. I was stuck at 10th wheel but bridged to the front three, making four. Our leader stopped to wait and the three of us agreed to soft pedal ahead. I guess I lied. At the county park, part of the group joined us but maybe I set the pace too high. I’m a jerk. Thanks to my three jerk riding mates today. You were awesome except for the guy in the back (photo) who predictably sat on the back the entire way. Maybe I shouldn’t have waited at the top of the last hill. But I was the only one with the route. 🤦‍♂️

Also, don’t bring your $12000 tri-bike to a group ride. It has no place in a group. And my last 70° (21 °C) ride of the year.
