My 2 year old now runs around making "pew pew" sounds, and gets super excited if I play the Star Wars theme on the stereo. And they both like to play with my old toys now. @davidh – They liked them a lot.

I feel your pain. On my first 100MON I crashed twice, the only times I crashed that whole year! Both were on pavement, both were on hairpin turn-arounds at each end of my short course, and both were because I simply over cooked the turns like an idiot. :-D Great write-up! Thanks for sharing!

How did the kids like the movie. When I was their age it was The Wizard of Oz (in color!) Oh how things change. I expect my 100MoN will be in the dead of winter by the time my Dr clears me to ride again. There will probably be 'dark' involved. <b>Keep 'em coming Fatties!</b> Great story!

It's been a while since I've written much, but it's fun to do it again. @Jim - Sweet. I wonder if that works for races or not... @Corrine — Thanks!

Maybe it's only (1.5)^2 x 40 = 90? Is the 1.5 multiplier additive or multiplicative? Maybe it’s only (1.5)^2 x 40 = 90?

You had two crashes, that puts you at 3.0 * 40 == 120 even without the trainer. Well done, well reported. jt In my world, you get an automatic 1.5 multiplier any time a crash is involved.

That takes determination to get on your trainer after riding 40 miles outdoors. Way to get it done. I had the same question as Jeff. Glad no indoor crashes! Great writing.
