Fortunately I ride a 20 year old Olmo so no one pesters me for my advice except my wife, and even she is learning to ignore most of my eccentric thoughts.<BR/><BR/>I do ride fast though, and eschew the recreational pace line. I did a century last Sunday and my wife and I came up on the back of a 100 person pack. There was a change in speed that rippled its way back until there was locked brakes around us. We then crossed the yellow line (there was no other way) and cruised past this rolling mass.<BR/><BR/>It was a good decision. When we got to the front the ladies (a whole pack of pink jerseys) pulling the group along asked someone on the side of the road if he needed help. He said "spoke wrench" and they (at the head of a 100 person pack remember) grabbed there brakes and started yelling "does anyone have a spoke wrench?" We were (happily) gone. Scary.<BR/><BR/>Have a steady day,<BR/>This Old HusbandJimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10886212040029678630noreply@blogger.com
