Cycle Haus

I did a great ride this morning with a new group. A local shop (Cycle Haus) has a racing team some of the team along with other locals do a super fast ride with 5 good sprints. We were consistently rolling at over 40km/h and I found myself just hanging on a number of times. Doing a ride for the first time, you also don't know where sprints/accelerations are going to happen so it makes things even more difficult.

Two things I'd never heard before on a ride happened today. While in the paceline, someone shouted out "boar!" - we passed this huge, hairy, wild boar staring us down. Soon after, someone shouted "plane!" - we passed a small commuter plane that had obviously landed on the road several hours ago and rolled/crashed into the bushes at the side of the road. Only in Florida!
