One of the most frustrating things about being in the Great Race is when we are in small towns or “villages” and come up to a stop sign … and a local comes over to the car to chat.  There is nothing we love to do more than talk with folks about the Great Race, but when we are on-the-clock we just don’t have time – we are timed to one-hundredth of a second.  So, as Patrick is counting down 3 – 2 – 1 and I am watching for traffic and preparing to go – I try to give the folks a 3 second conversation.  We fear we have left people all over the country thinking we are the rudest people in the world; and for that we apologize!   This year to try to “make peace” we have “trading cards” to give to people as we zoom off from the stop sign.
