Last Dance: Sept 24 Riley Tavern
In the words of the late and great Tom Petty...She grew up in a Midwestern townHad a good lookin' Colnago she road all aroundBut she road hard and she climbed alrightWith them Drafter boys on a Drafter Monday nightWell she started the Draft in two thousand thirteenShe didn’t blow the boys away, but it was more than they'd seenThe Draft was introduced and we all started groovin'She said, "I dig you Drafters, we got to keep movin'...on, keep movin' on"Last dance through the county of DaneOne more time to feel the painI feel summer creepin' past and I'msad this Draft is my laaaast.Well I don't know what I've been toldYou never slow down, you never grow oldI'm tired of changing flats, I'm tired of goin' down, but never grow tired of biking this townOh my my, oh hell yesHoney put on that Drafter dressBuy me a drink, sing me a song,Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay longLast dance through the county of DaneOne more time to feel the painI feel summer creepin' past and I'mgonna make this night laaaastThere's mosquitos down at Free House squareSully’s standin' in her Drafter wearLookin' down from a beer menuSpotted Cow will be comin' soonOh my my, oh hell yesYou've got to put on that Drafter dressLast dance the county of DaneOne more time to feel the painI feel summer creepin' past and I'mgonna make this night laaaastWe had an excellent turn out Monday. 17 Drafters "Wauan"ted to Ride Easy Street.
That's a fairly complete list of excuses for why many of us had tired legs on Monday and didn't challenge Cannibal and Captain Joe for the town sign sprint. None of us could challenge this new record set- 184mph by a woman on a bicycle.
Link: She just rode 184mph on a bicycle. Really.I expect those of us doing the RIDE this Sunday to challenge that. The Drafter force will be felt- I've got Bomber, Footer, Coach Arms, Sully, Wampus, Captain Joe, Caboose, Cookie Monster and Vilks on the roster along with special appearance by K2! Congrats on your recent summit race. She's got more miles on those legs running up mountains than most of us do biking!
All 17 Drafters, with our without legs of lead, completed the Wanua Ride Easy Street before the sun set. Waitress Amy was ready at the Free House with beers and an extra side of olives and buffalo sauce for BrickO. Sandlot brought her son, Evan AND wrote a poem. Much appreciated.
Last dance of the season will be the Riley Tavern Route, a poetic end as it was also our first ride of the season. Short but sweet this is a 21mile oldie but goodie.
