Dan and Chris,



The weather is looking pretty good.  The ride will be a go, We can meet up as

scheduled 0600 at the shoppette.

Jeff expressed some interest to me about this one. I'll pass this along and see

you in the morning.

Hope you have a good time! Don't forget the lube!

I did forget the lube but it didn't become a problem. We made fair time

somewhere between 6 and 7 hours including our water/food stops. Jeff had a

strange shifter/derailleur problem, but it ended up in a gear he could ride. It

was a great way to tour the Eifel. The best part was joining about a 40 rider

group and cruising swiftly through Luxembourg; we were going faster and my heart

rate was slower than the whole rest of the journey.



Note: I did not stretch it out to 100 mi; there was a cold rain that started

about 16 km from the finish.

Chris,

Yes it was a great ride except for the water part, the shoes are wet the bike

looks like i went mt biking, but all is good.  Maybe next time we can do the

extra 14kms to put you over the century.

Jeff,

Post the pictures when you get them ready.  Maybe we should have a good look at

your bike once you clean it.  I have housing and can take a look at it if you

need assistance.

Dan,

I thought you got lost leaving but i guess you were just pouring more coffee.

I will let you all know when i recieve the write up from the paper.

Fun ride and good route...just enough climbs to make it interesting but not too

painful.  Chris is right on...hooking on to that large group was the best part

of the ride...except for the cheesecake at the rest stop :)



Jack...no, I got lost but made a quick recovery.  Note to self, the autobahn

signs are green in Belgium, not blue...
