July 17, 2009 – Last night, the fastest was one of our steadfast regulars, Wheels of Bloor’s own Paolo Dilecce. A beautiful evening, but unfortunately there was a crash. One of our riders suffered a skewer failure and went down, we are saddened to report. In good spirits on the way to the ER, one of our regulars, Paul Rea, seems to have survived pretty much okay, as did his beautiful Colnago. ER doc (and 2008 M2 provincial TT champ) Bryan Wolff happened by and helped out. The 6 DNF’s include 5 riders who stopped to help out.

The Crash did not slow the remainder too much. We were pleased to welcome some new faces.

Weather was cloudy, 26C, winds WSW at 17kph.
