You always see the Air Force guys stopping because they are all required to carry several tubes with them and stop to help anyone they see change a tire (someone’s PR stunt they started a few years back).  Our running joke for this year was “How many airmen does it take to change a tire?”  They have never been able to ride as a group.  Evidently they decided this year to go out in groups of five.

I will not question their riding ability, but I did receive amny complaints about their pacelines and lack of communication this year when I had never heard a complaint about them in the past.

PS: I did hear part of their morning briefing was to avoid the Army guys.  (They really hate us since we’re only their to have fun).
