Friday I biked the Race Track loop. I was doing a Bob Seger "Against the Wind" for half the ride but then at the end I pulled a Phil Collins because "Against All Odds" I was within a minute of my best time ever. In the home stretch I was out of the saddle pounding away. Then I heard a loud psssttttt! I had blown a tire. Rather than stop I did a James Brown being chased by the cops and rode on rims the rest of the way rather than stop 20 seconds away from the finish.

I missed my best time but it was pretty epic, like trying to reel in a giant fish only to have it get away.
