I use to think that getting dropped on a ride meant I couldn't keep  
up the pace or bonked and finished far behind the main group.
Now there is a new meaning to getting dropped from a ride :-)

Just funnin' ya. Thanks for leading another fun ride and taking the  
time to share the ride report summary with all.
Whenever I can't get out and ride it is always nice to hear about  
what happened on the rides I missed.

See all the ToPA crew on Friday evening. It's almost tour time baby !!!
