I am laughing so hard I am crying! And my stomach muscles hurt. Mikael, I hope you don't mind if we copy. I am thinking that a Slow Bicycle Race after our Cycle Chic Ride and subsequent meetup at a cantina would be just what the bicycle ordered.

I look forward to future slow bike races - perhaps with a larger field?
