You should know. :-) I guess I was the only one besides you to see 
Gilles crash on Saturday. I din't catch all of it. I just saw as I 
came around the corner Gilles sliding towards the left edge of the 
pavement and you moving to the left to get around him. He stopped with 
a few feet to spare and you squeezed by between him and the guard 
rail. What you may not have seen was Gilles stopping on his stomach 
and looking up. What he saw was Ryan's crash bar headed towards the 
space he was lifting his face into, causing him to flinch and bang his 
head once again into the pavement.

Don't you just hate it when people drop it right in front of you? It 
suddenly puts you in such a responsible position. I know I'm grateful 
for my friends who have avoided running over my dumb butt, and it was 
a relief to see you miss Gilles'.
