Yea, I can’t find any information about it either. There is a small group of pilots that he worked close with, I was one of those. I only heard about it this morning by one of the pilots in the group. He lived south of Baltimore, but I can’t find any news related to sailing accidents. Apparently he raced weekly or often, I’m assuming a sailing club or something. We never talked about it, whenever we talked he wanted me to help him find a bike. He was looking at a CAAD and a synopsis for while.

They fit me better than the equivalent bontrager shoes. I still had to go a size up, and the fit logic is different than what I am use to. The heel seems to have a little bit more room. So far I am happy with them. Gunna give them a good test ride tomorrow.
I didn’t realize how nice my bontrager Xxx shoes were until I started trying these other shoes. Leather really does make a difference.

My poor kitty can't jump anymore. He can't get on the bed and sometimes he walks like he's in pain. Maybe he has arthritis. I don't know how old he is but we've had him for almost 11 years.

I still get SIDIs but I have to pull the velcro/belt/fastener all the way in order to get it snug.

Cloudy and cool again today. This never happens in September but the tropical storms have caused it. Should be a nice ride today but mid 90s by Saturday.
