I wasn’t alone in thinking this would be a race, since the Appalaches Classi began that way, amd was run as such until the pandemic. Kinda surprised to receive an email early this morning saying, FYI, this is not a race. Ok, wel, that takes some stress off, not least because I had to change wheels at 06:30 due to a bizarre mystery slow-leak. Turns out the pace was full-on race style anyhow, with some pretty solid hitters, including Bruno Langois. Steve and Os were in the front group of 8 with me while a dude was off the front for ever, and it ultimately became more desirable to sit up and ride with Steve after he came off around 90k in; party pace! Nice to feel decent on the climbs, but definitely a weird vibe, and lots of views not viewed. I’ll get into a bunch of that over the next 2-3 days here.
