  • Comments: I will add this to my list every year! It was organized, well run, had tons of volunteers and was a great way to see the 5 boros! Best of all (and not trying to sound cheesy), but the best part of the entire ride was that I did it with Brad, Michael, Karen and Mike! Can't wait to do it again next year...and the year after...and the year after that...

  • Comments: As usual, very nicely set up event. Everyone else in the family wants to do it next year (OH BOY!). I'll need to really prep for that one. I can see 07 turning into a punish-fest for them and an emotional roller coaster for me. But I'm ready for it and like usual, we'll all have a blast. Oh yeah, Caesar seriously doubt's he'll be doing it again........EVER! :) Before the event, both guys claimed they were more than ready to do a century with me in a couple of weeks. At the end of the day, I told them to think about this "You just completed 42 miles in 5 hours. In a century you would ALMOST be half way there". The totally defeated looks on their faces (as their shakikng head and eyes rolled down), was too funny. PS - As I type this, one of them e-mailed me still complaining about his rear hurting and how he missed work today. :)
