Brewin’ PBR

It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity. Bah. Enough complaining about mercury rising. 25 Drafters showed up and got after it.

Knievel, McGritty, Pit Stop, Presley, Cujo, Shaq, Speedy, Air Bourne, von Diesel, Gopher, Skipper, Duracell, Sweep, Pepe, Queenie, Z, Nemo and Sherlock

MIA since 2019, welcome back von Diesel. Close to missing the action, Skipper rolled in with 1′ to spare. Gopher arrived on time, but ran out of time to ride as Daddy Day Care duties materialized 1′ before wheels up.

Fashion and Fashionably Late. Shaq strikes a pose for the cover of for her new catalog, “Fashion Forward”. Taking two styles of older Hincapie kits to create a new one (leave it up to the reader to decide if she misordered or mixed and matched on purpose), this kit is also her first “onesie”. The Fashion Forward catalog will reference bibs as “onesies” for adults.

Fashionably Late was Twinkle Toes. At least this week he remembered his shoes.

Spigot, Vilks, Hammer, Twinkle Toes, Hawkeye, Rimshot and BrickO

The pace set by both groups was as blistering as the heat. Check out the bike etiquette on Schneider Road. Red hot!

The group sizzled down Schneider Rd.

Breunig Road was a good mixer, with the A Team and most of the B Team having a chance to say hello.

It was also a chance to say goodbye, as Hawkeye, Vilks and Hammer Time turned on the afterburners. BrickO’s flame burned out, but thanks to Duracell, was pulled back to the group. Twinkle Toes‘ light was also burning a little less brightly in the heat. Spigot benevolently stayed by his side, possibly relieved, given the 177 miles he had put in his legs Saturday at Ride Across Wisconsin.
