brucepick,
It was nice to meet you and thanks a ton for sharing some pre-race info! It did prove to be invaluable and you were of course spot-on with your insights.

Sheepdog_44 and Myself did see you out on the track and it kinda looked like this:

P.S. The clock is one-hour off. I hadn't slept much in days and overlooked a few details like daylight savings time!!

UltArc,
Thank you appreciated but it was a team effort. Sheepdog_44 took the reigns on the invite and in the end it was a good deal - Team Aerostang rocks!

Pete is a lifelong friend of mine (fierce triathlon competitors we were!) and his birthday was that Saturday. For being the best friend ever (chase car, hotel, etc) we celebrated his birthday a little early with a little gift from the ecomodders:









--- HAPPY 40th PETE !!!!!!! ---
