Breakaway

I’m into pens. Nice ones, like my blue Pilot Precise V5 Extra Fine. So we are sitting there at Panera after the Tuesday morning ride when Sally, Carol and I got to talking race tactics. I lent my legal pad and prized pen to Carol who gave a lesson on tactics (see diagram) though who would ever know by the diagram that race tactics was the topic? She was driving home some point about riders in the front of peleton (see repeated circles) but I drifted off, worried that the pen was suffering under the pressure of whatever point she was trying to make. I started a different tactical game of getting the pen out of her hand and giving her a junky one.
