Nice--thanks for sharing!. I'm struck by the number of other riders you know to recognize--clearly not a first time for you!

There were over 70 riders signed up from San Francisco Randonneurs. I also saw people I had met at domestic 1200k's.

I was riding 49x18, or 72 gear inches. Last time I had used 47x18 and felt a little under-geared.
