The universe truly put everything together for you that day. I'm a little choked up thinking about how fortunate and awesome that string of events was. So glad you are all safe and well!

Next time something sucks it wont suck as bad.........unless it was more miserable. Then its back to practice at being miserable. Think of it as practicing at being miserable.

Me has to ask a question: "With help on the way, why didja continue riding in horrendous conditions?" Why not just wait by the side of the road out of harm's way? Sounds like those big ol' steel boxes had very limited visibility and ye was riding in very windy conditions, etc.? Wasn't like a rando ride where you had to be at Y place by X time, aye. Thanks FC, enjoyed the “cerealization” and suspense for sure.

What I am wondering is why you would even start on such a huge ride with any chance of rain on the forecast? It seems that the area you rode in is prone to flash floods which is NEVER a good thing, especially not when riding a bike. <em>Thanks for your feedback!

That is so scary. Not sure if you believe in a higher power, but I'd have to say someone was watching out for you two that day. I'm grateful the ending was a happy one.

For the Levi's Fondo Fattys, I have a unused Large men's jersey available for whomever wants it. V8 I believe. Ordered it with a medium during my weight loss period and ended up fitting the smaller one. You can email me at anthosr at gmail if interested. I actually have a couple slightly used older version XL jerseys I could part with also. Unfortunately I won't be riding the Fondo this year after going over my handlebars this past weekends and ending up with a broken collarbone. Disappointing, but it could have been worse. So I also have a Gran course entry that needs a home. Loved the multiparty adventure story.
