I had a great time with the challenge... it proved to be very challenging! I'm looking forward to next year! -Pete

The tour is over.... what a great experience! Time to find a pub and celebrate!

Trains give us unplanned rest stops.

I'm not sure why I would want to Tote a Poke, but this store is in a small southern town that I ride through.

I was getting rained on this evening, yet I was riding into the sun. I knew there would be a gift of nature behind me.... here it is:

The posts are awesome... no wonder people love to ride! I'm posting a photo taken this evening along my normal route, it's a simply barn on a country road.

This is my first image post on MFP. I pass this house on most of my rides... it's in Buford, GA.

In GA, 2 bottles will only get a person through about 50 miles. You could put a couple bottles in your back shirt pockets and disposing of the bottles when empty. That will give you 4. I would just plan a stop.

Can't wait. I like watching the live broadcast. I DVR it if I can't have it on while I'm working. It's a fantastic event!

I'd like to join... if you use me, put me where needed. -Pete TBY - #327 Done

I slow at stop signs, giving the right of way to a car/truck getting there first. If there is noone there, I roll through.... in a group ride, the leader will shout: "rolling". But, Stoplights... I always stop if red. If the light needs a car to trigger the light (often does in the country) and there simply are no cars,…

I've been using the Garmin 500 for a couple years.... love it.

.

I have 2.... I ride my Scott Addict, Carbon and fast. My first bike was a Fuji Roubaix 2.0 which I now use on the trainer in the basement.

Yup! Bombs away!

I love it! Validates my inner feelings. Last time it happened, sometime in the 90's, I was flattered.

I have a food scale that I use constantly.... it's flat, stainless (so just needs wiping down) and very simply. It's about the size of a 7 inch tablet and about the same thickness. Olive Oil Mister....I don't have one but now I want one. I'm picturing a glass bottle, so I can see the oil, with a simply spray top. Smoothy…

Tube, multi-tool, plastic levers, Air, $20 in case I need cash. Interesting story.... blew out a spoke (Mavic blade) while 15 miles from home and I just happened to forget my phone on the ride. Had to limp back, 5-7 mph. Not fun.

Great Stuff! Now that's funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a very thin metal digital scale. A plate or bowl can be set on it and the scale nets to zero... this is my favorite feature. I've been using it for a few years and have yet to need to change out the batteries. I bought it on Amazon... it tucks away behind my kuerig.

You're looking so marvelous (Billy Crystal says it best).

No, but wanted to in 1982. Have you ever done the hula?

False , used to though. TNP needs to trim their big toe nail..... yuk.

One happy person!

Slow dance

36lbs down ! You go right ahead and wear what you want. Remember: there is a time and place for everything!

I'm planning on starting the day with one of those egg casseroles! Yum.

Of course. It's for life, two become one. Personal sacrifice is required, not optional. Highlight the vow..."For better or for worse" because there will be both. And, kids change everything about your life, you are now responsible for the life off another. Marriage is not easy but it's worth it. Personally, I suggest…
