February 2008
Hi guys - Just wanted to thank you for my amazing custom bike. I just rode my longest ride ever, a 200k Dart with some friends who are Randonneurs. You can see in the photo that I am a blur, riding ahead of the pack. That tells the story, right there! It was my first ride over thirty miles (in ten years of riding) that I've completed without feeling pain. No neck pain, no back pain, no butt pain. I was equally exhausted all over! It was great. And I averaged 2 mph faster without even trying. So thanks for the great ride! I've already sent two friends your way - everyone's impressed with "blue lightening" and wish I would shut up about it already.
