Nice job Seth!
Riding solo at 20 mph for 50 miles is quite an accomplishment. Congrats!
Good job on the weight loss too. I saw the photo you posted of you and your
dad at the baseball game and noticed that your face looks thinner. Just
don't get as thin as Tyler used to get when he was prepping for the Tour.

Yikes, that's skinny...
I'm going away Thursday for business and probably won't be able to ride for
a week. Bummer.
