You must have missed the ordeal with his H&R wheel spacer.

Sorry - G-Massa mentioned it to me and I forgot. G-Massa: do you have a pic of your spacer? I had a set of H&R 5mm spacers that were nothing but death traps (breaking lugs left and right) and ultimately switched up to an H&R 15mm spacer kit because it had a hub centric lip. No more broken studs.

Loved it. The only car we saw go faster was a trooper down around Exit 18-17 that BLEW by us just to nab some car going maybe 5mph faster than we were.

We followed you down the Northway and did a steady 75mph on the way back. Yeah, I thought you guys were in sight, but when I caught up to what I thought was the tail end of the train, it turned out to be a minivan, so we just took our time.

Almost. We split off from the group so that Adam could show me the road. We headed down it and luckily I'm just pedaling it moderately because we get to the first corner, and as I turn through it... sits a tree or tree branch about 6 inches in diameter, laying across both lanes, split into 3 relatively large pieces, as if someone had already hit it or it broke on impact. I was able to squirt between two pieces by swerving into part of the oncoming lane. We went about 5 more minutes down the road and then turned around. Passed only 2 pickups going the other way in that time. When we got back down to that corner, Adam reminded me about the tree, but it looked like one of the pickups took the hazard out even more, so it wasn't too difficult to make it through then.
