An Epic Ride

[Arlingtonrider]

Wow! Ann, you are nothing short of amazing! QOM. I would haved loved to have seen people’s faces as you pedaled up the Custis.

Awesome!

Wow, the triathalon will be a piece of cake in comparison. Someone needs to come up with clipless heels for acc. I hope people post pics of the parade/event. I am so annoyed I mised it. Yeah, I was stuck packing for vacation today (and am presently waiting for my plane at Dulles) but the weather was so NICE!

I think I passed this spectacle as it was headed back west on the Custis, maybe 430ish? My only thought was “TdF must’ve just wrapped up!”

Oh man, I should have hung out on the trail to watch the parade go by!

Ann Rocks!!!!

I will say that my kit for the Total200 will be slightly more aerodynamic, but no less flashy. I’ve been working on the ensemble for almost 6 months.

Back on topic: Thanks to Ann and all those people who volunteered to make TdFat a great event. I wasn’t there, but I’ve heard so many positive things about it.

Rock on!!!

Nice! As someone who’s done it, I have always thought that anyone that rides a bike in heels more than five miles should get triple Strava points or a free foot massage.

I’m sure Ann will appreciate the foot massage more than the triple Strava points.

Hot.

Huh. Funny thing is Liz and I were JOKING about posting this. At least I thought we were joking.
I ended up riding back because:
1. The Metro ride in had been *interesting*

2. I avoided making dinner.
3. How could I pass up the chance to ride home uphill in heels, tights, and a tutu? Who needs water? Water is for the weak.

4. Next year when Liz and I pull out of Vienna on our way to Tour De Fat, I hope more people will come along in costume for the fun/spectacle/hilarity of it.
5. I found my first recruit.

Note the sensible footware instead of heels…

I promise you Ann, if this comes to pass I will wear a ridiculous costume both directions.
