Great ride today. Josh and Ryan kept the pace hard. Sylvan, Barton, Alan and I took advantage of Ryan's flat at Island View to get ahead. We went through Sidney non-stop around Lands End to W Saanich. Josh and Ryan caught us around Pat Bay, we hung on for a minute then watched them pull away over the hills.
Humbled today by:
Sylvan riding solo on a tandem and pulling away up the first hill at W. Saanich
Alan who gave blood on Thursday, and still hung in there
Barton who made a great break on Interurban and bridged to two others for the finish

Also humbled by Greg's monster pulls into the wind.... A great ride all around...
Re: Saturday Sufferfest Mar 12
Also had a couple IRC guys, Neil(?) and Tony out. Some monster pulls by Neil. Good solid two up steady state TT ride for me most of the way back after Ryan and I ended up alone. Ryan is a powerhouse.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Thanks for the ride, guys, and for waiting for me whilst I fixed my flat. Neil and Tony (IRC guys) are great to have along and I hope they join us again. Neil is a locomotive when he's not injured (he has a pulled hamstring).
