Esammuli you don't actually ride with Ranchos on the weekend group rides do you?
You must be like 10 times faster than those guys!
I know because I like to ride with them (sat. morning N. county Fair) once in a blue moon when im home from school and free on a weekend.
Does Ranchos have a secret "racing squad" of guys like you that I don't even know about?

aka mattio
in the foreground, at the finish line of the bear mountain classic. cramping badly, missed the late break, and the finish line snuck up on me. made up lots of places and room fast but couldn't get around four guys shoulder to shoulder (so it seemed) in front of me at the line and only got ninth. felt like the course hurt me more than it should have. more than battenkill did.

How about this? This is a picture of the second group trying to chase our three man break down last weekend. It's good to see others suffer because of you.
It was just a organized ride, however. Not a race. Though we pinned numbers and had a KOM climb.
