Challengers,
My internet is not cooperating with me this evening, so I cannot provide all the details of my participation in the Ironman bike ride. I will say briefly that the experience was long, freezing, dirty, headwind-laden and delirium-inducing. However, in the end, I triumphed over the ride and checked a box. I will write more when I have a more reliable internet connection.
Truly yours,
Comm. C.
P.S. You can see/read a little more over at the Minnesota Ironman Bicycle Ride page, including this excerpt:
“Special note to the century (100-mile) riders: you guys are animals. That was an incredible ride.”
