Rod, I was only ahead of you in the standing very briefly and I had to bike at 2am just to have a few hours of glory before your next ride. As to the James boys, there should be a BAFS prize for the surname with the most points. You might think it would be the more common “Smith”, but no, it’s the James gang.

Don’t Be a NEWB: Where there are gathered two or more individuals with the last name James, they shall be refered to as a gang; i.e. “The James Gang”. Failure to do so is punishable by immediate train robbery – per American lore and tradition.

To Your Oh So Existential AF Point: I cherish this community and consider myself a virtual “keeper” or “troll” in this and similar bike-related mediums. And I do not feel wholly comfortable in this internet-based persona. I do however feel comfortable on a bike, which is where you’ll find me – year round – and it’s never been easier to find me thanks to BAFS.

Reach out any way that makes you feel comfortable. Strava, Twitter, IG, FB, email, text. Late

P.S. I gave this disclaimer to my team in like our first week of existence, but we communicate primarily via Strava.

As snow approaches, we sit about 50 points out of first place! Some of us have studs and will be riding straight through the mess. If the rest of us can just get outside for our daily “sleaze ride”, I think we can win! And it would Be amazing to have a team of riders primarily from MD, where bike infrastructure is scant, won. Let’s do this!

Ok. I’m learning strava and relearning long for(u)m social media? I’ll probably come across digital frequencies as pretty rude, gruff, and uncultured for the duration of BAFS2016. But I am please to be on team 5 and I think riding bikes is cool.
