I miss my cycling buddies from Virginia so I would love to do a nice gravel ride with the Veloville shop ride regulars, and a road training ride with my (now virtual) tri coach and team Sportfit. The whole speed things is something, so if I were next to someone on a treadmill or a bike trainer, it would be cool to talk to Chrissie Wellington or Dave Scott or Mark Allen or Dean Karnazes or any of those legendary folks.
