Well, by my count, the 3 Floyds Ride suffered four flats, one crash, one eye injury, and one broken chain ring. Because of all the breakdowns, the group splintered off into at least four groups at one point, and I picked up a straggler who left an hour after we did.
Yet somehow, despite all this drama, we all arrived at the turn into the industrial park at the same time. Freakin' weird.
I think arriving at the event on bikes (with one bike being towed in by a rope), and the unexpected hero's welcome that ensued, made it all worth it. I couldn't believe how many people came up to ask how far we rode to get there.
Was it worth the ride home? I'm still debating that subject. That seriously sucked.
