Preface: Delayed, I know. But this post is more for me, and for the reflection some distant day sitting with the grandkids…
Monday morning, 6am , and the first wrestling match for the day with the girl checking Jet Blue re my oversized 80pound bike bag. I more than double the cost of my ticket. But this to get to New York City – for three days of playtime. Three days at full tilt.
(Missioning to Reed’s apartment – passer’s by suggested a cab. We wanted the atmosphere instead)
Garmin emailed last week asking for my sizes. Seemed a little orb but explained in response as a small fashion insert needed for the Garmin Tribe Magazine publication – a print run of 10 000 and a digital copy to 170 000. Needless to say I hardly know my height, let along inseem, collar, chest and all sorts of other specs. Dependent on Ben and Jerry intake and fluctuational influences. Anyhow, ignorance is bliss; little did I know what I was getting into.
More text to follow. Just been a mental few days. And the photos from Jon Ivins will be incredible when I get them. Just some moments captured last week in the mean time. Again of the best experiences I’ve had.
