I'm sure we can get Paul and his Portland Team to round up Voodoo Donuts as an official sponsor, and supplier.

It is sad that we give certain words a mystical "power". They are just words, get over it. Seems as if people become bigger babies each and every day. Curtis,

Seriously? It is sad that we give certain words a mystical “power”. They are just words, get over it. Seems as if people become bigger babies each and every day.

A little. Bacon, wrapped around DONUTS! You may thank me next year in person at the Fondo. :) Well said Paul, but I’m going to blow your mind. A little. Bacon, wrapped around DONUTS!

You may thank me next year in person at the Fondo. :)

Bacon instead of donuts? Bikes made out of bacon? A bacon trophy to the winners? Each rider must fry a piece of bacon to proper crispness and flavor at every lap? (I would be the judge, of course) All of the above? Next year’s race with Tommy D, Queen of Pain, Dempsey and Levi, should involve bacon.

Sandy was NO JOKE. I'm a vegetarian and I think I would have eaten the bacon on this ride. I can report from just outside NY city, this Team Fatty member is ok. Sandy was NO JOKE.

I'm sure like many of your readers, I went and bought Patrick "a few pints' to help with his medical bills. Today I woke up to the loveliest thank you letter ever. I am impressed with what a class act he is, and the class act you continue to be. I have moved on from the other issues. I love that we will continue to move forward and 'do good'. Something I hope I am teaching my children along the way. And bless Patrick, the time stamp showed it was close to 2am when he sent it, which means the poor guy must have been up all night writing individual thank yous to people. I hate that I am such an inner cynic much of the time. Not feeling that way today. Best, Irnldy Dear Fatty

I assume this saint could not drive all the way to the summit so had to hike it to the top. You said a campfire, but there's no wood up there. Did he cook a few pieces for just for a handful of lucky riders, or for all the riders? Wow – the logistics of getting bacon at 12,500 ft astound me.

From years past, climbing Colorado's 14ers, almost anything tastes better at altitude. Hot jello is the best recovery drink ever! I better quit reading these great posts, or I'll sell my house for the price of a MTB and move back. Bacon at altitude – Heaven!
