July 4th: Ride Independently with Drone Video Link Intact
Rockin' to Roxbury proved to be the most challenging ride of the season with respect to distance, elevation and pace (thanks to Turbo JT). The route will henceforth be dubbed "Hit Rock Bottom and Rox-Buried". We welcomed two Newbies, MDott and Turbo JT, who join our orthopedic and cardiology service: the Disjointed Arrhythmias, call 1-800-HRT-BR8K for a consult. The Human Metronome kept up with Turbo JT, but he wasn't keeping up with the idea of the drone filming the Drafters. WhoYaKnow accelerated past the peloton in the support vehicle several times seeking position to launch the drone. The first time he raced by, the Human Metro cussed the inconsiderate driver under his breath. The second pass, a few expletives were released. The blog is rated PG so I won't share. On the third pass, the idea caught up with Metro as he muttered, "Oh, that jerk is WhoYaKnow. And he is flying a drone over the peloton!" Enjoy the footage.Drone Video Have a wonderful holiday weekend. See you on July 11.Draft responsibly,BrickO
