Yeah, I've been trying not to think about how trifling things are gonna get when cold weather sets in...

I feel sure that some may have assumed that I was part of the problem. I just rode on patiently and awaited my chance to get back to 75 mph.

That's the way it was for two weeks straight in 2003 around the Milwaukee area for the 100th. Not just the interstates but state highways, backroads, and city streets as well. 5-10mph under the posted limits was normal behind a group of bikes.
