Today I started on the road at around 7 AM. I had breakfast with Rob after having slept very soundly, and after a hefty dose of Motrin I was ready to roll. This day was sold all throughout the ride as the most difficult of the four.

Woke up at 4 AM with Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox if I Die as reveille. This seemed particularly fitting. I caught the shuttle to the fairgrounds at 4:45. I was unusually happy for being up so early--I suppose the excitement gave me enough energy to be bouncy and pouncy.

Took the Metro, then the Maryland commuter rail to Baltimore-Washington International Airport. The train ride was uneventful, restful. On the shuttle bus from the MARC station to the airport I met Nick, whom I identified as a rider because of the telltale Camelback and helmet. Another rider by name of Pete joined us on the shuttle.
