You got this right. The story got better. This first stage of the Ride was uphill, over a mountain pass. It was all downhill after that. When we got to the bottom, we turned north into the 35-40 mph headwind. That is when I hit 77 mph a couple of times on my streamlined Helix. We still led the pack because some of those bikes could not do that!

Streamlining is really effective. More pics and stories coming.
