PRE-RACE

Our first flight was scheduled to take off at 11:30 on Friday morning. We left the runway at 12:45. Our connection was scheduled to take off at 3:50. It left Miami at 3:52. We deplaned in Miami at 3:55. Alrighty, time to get comfy at Miami International! Next flight to New Orleans wasn’t until 10:45. So Chrissie, Jesse, and I set up camp in a nice little corner of MIA, and had a good ol’ time people watching. When 10:15 (advertised boarding time) rolled around and there was no plane attached to the gate, we kissed good-bye to the anticipated 12:30 bedtime. At 10:45 the airline attendant announced that there was a delay… Duh! We finally made our way to New Orleans and crawled into bed around 1:30am.  

Those who are not going to let a little endo’ cut their 7-hour day short, that’s who! This Saturday was be-a-u-tiful! And we took advantage with a 6-hour group ride.
