It's Tough Getting Old!

YES, the season has officially started with the 14th annual Bandit/Deadhead Marathon ride, which takes off a little early and typically is a little chilly. Prez. Hale and Mr. MBA were the only non-bandit riders and Mr. MBA missed the ride all together, not reading the date when he registered. A little trip to China was not worth canceling. (Go Figure)  A fairly new PCR wanted to join the team, but as you will read/see he missed his T-Time. BIG MAN was feeling pretty good as he got to do a little singing before the ride even started and was hoping to post a PR. little Indian got lost a couple of times, but the OLDER tribe members waited to make sure he made it to the finish line.

BIG MAN started his sprint to the finish line at mile 26, with 0.2 left thinking he might have a chance. However, Prez. Hale had a different thought. As the two of them continued to increase their speed, reaching the narrowing finishing line with barricades on both sides, Prez. Hale thought a little right shoulder nudge make help. BIG MAN's quick balancing act of avoiding going down proved to be too much for the now 60 YEARS OLD!  

As always, one of the BEST part's of the ride was the chatter and Prez. Hale introducing the group to a Kouign-amann (pronounced <kwin'aman>) a Breton cake. It is a round crusty cake, originally made with bread dough, containing layers of butter and sugar folded in....... TO DIE FOR!
