LOL Super-Tuck was the only way past you for just 1 of the boys 😉 and that Sprint finish where you finally got the Win for that ride was a RAD effort for sure. Deep video!!

    Great stuff this 77 year old ex-racer with Afib loved it. Be safe out there. Thank you. Leave your helmet on, I have seen more than a few go down just rolling in after a hard ride. One fellow just about lost a finger, another guy a broken hip, and a young woman lost her life rolling into a park at a food stop and a car took her out. She had just taken off her helmet after a hard 50. Be safe out there all the time. Did I mention his third broken hip.
