'We've got the City to Ourselves!
Rest of article to be transcribed when I have time. Just let it be known that the Secret Service guys really liked my bicycle and I was allowed to ride my bicycle where others could not.
It looks like I was leading the pack, but it was only coming down the hill. You see I have 64 gears on that bike. And they were all designed for coming down hills not going up them. In the case of this ride there was a hill that was 12 km long. It felt like 200 and it took me a better part of the race to get up it. I would bet that at least thousands past me going up it, however when coming down that hill I must have passed thousands. A Washington officer clocked me on his radar as going 56 mph. I was so scared it was fun, as I came down the hill in 64th gear like a bat out of hell passing those very same people and the way it looked in the picture I was leading the pack. But I only lead it for about 12 seconds.
But it was a very good 12 seconds.
