Tri state was a blast. Some ugh moments to be sure, but a really great ride overall for a great cause. Here are my cell pictures from the road and some of daves (you need a myspace account to see daves).

Dave had his real camera also which obviously has much better quality pictures. However, I didn\'t care if I dropped my old cell phone, so most of these are taken en route. I\'ll write about it later. I have not been to sleep since 5am yesterday except for a little in the car with dave driving back last night and another hour at home before I had to get up for work.

So, I saw in the other thread that you went through east haven around 2:00pm saturday. I\'m assuming you just went Rt. 1, but there was a pretty decent sized group of riders going through Main St. of Durham around 10:30-11:00am on Saturday, was that you all?

Congrats and glad you made it!  A great ride for a great cause.   Good to have you guys at the Chez Wolf base camp before the start of the ride.  Get some rest and great work!  

P.S.  Those roid-munching pussies over at the Tour De France can eat your shorts!

i believe so. i looked at the chart, and it looks like the HRM was a little kooky right at the beginning of the ride, then fixed itself. looks like my real max was about 181bpm that day..

I must have just missed you guys on Saturday, damn, I wish I knew, I would have had some gatorade for you guys.
Good job-you accomplished something huge.
When all those people road through staven, they must have thought they road past New York right into the arm pit-Jersey!!!!!

You guys should organize a breakfast ride.  Follow the guys on tour via bikes!!!
All proceeds go to the band!!
Ha ha!

I\'m not sure if that\'s more of a crack on Staven or Jersey.  I\'ll let be on Staven since NJ gets such a bad rap for the most part because the only part of the state people see is Newark.  But as for the armpit comment, I challenge and of you CT people to drive on Route 8 in the valley with you windows open on a hot day - you\'ll be wishing it smelled like NJ!

See, it\'s brilliant marketing ideas like this that would catapult Breakfast popularity worldwide.  Nikki should manage the flippin band.
