Dear Dickhead at the Intersection of Tillary and Navy,

Thanks for making a last-minute, illegal left turn that forced me to brake suddenly and slip on the wet pavement. When I bought my new cycling shorts yesterday, I remember thinking to myself, “Man, I hope I only use these things for 11 miles before some fuckstick in a Honda Civic cuts me off and they get ripped open!” Seriously, I am forever in your debt. You do God’s work.

Love,

Jim

So my leg is all gauzed up, which is pretty fun. Photos to come post-ride. I’m at the mile 15 rest stop now, waiting for Eliz to get her tire fixed. Going really well so far (road rash on hip notwithstanding), looking forward to the remaining 85 (hopefully crash-free) miles. More updates to come…

POST-RACE PHOTO UPDATE (warning: gratuitous nudity below)
