So although it was just a "ride," I felt my pride ebbing and flowing once in a while. Like when I came up on this guy and his bike. I felt that yes, I am going to have to pass him. However, he was moving along at a pretty good clip, so I figured I'd get a back shot. (I did pass him after a while ... but he stayed back there for quite some time.)
The low point on day two was toward the end of the ride when I got passed by ... a horse and buggy. Now, I've ridden in Lancaster a bunch of times and have nevery had any problems whipping by the carriage. But I couldn't hold my equine friend back for that long. I would have taken a photo, but really, there's no need to photo-document that embarassment.
