I was a bit timid in traffic, and I didn't figure out the "I'm a slow moving vehicle on the shoulder with my flashers on" thing until mile 55, so I went kind of fast along the river until we got to the first big ascent. Shortly thereafter, I saw a Jetta that I thought might be one of us, but I wasn't sure until you took a corner way too fast without braking. I braked for that one, and I decided to follow you at a distance so you'd locate the turns and set a good pace for me. After the halfway point, I followed Darin until the last 10 miles, when I got nervous about the traffic and the clock and sped up again.
