Dear Otto,

thanks for the email. you should know how utterly confused everyone looked in your absence today — especially juan and pete: “so… who do i push today then?”. i ended up going long so i didn’t get to see who played otto on the regular ride, but i’m sure it was anarchy all around.

here is a conversation i shared with angelo…

angelo: ummm, so what do we do today?

sox: ummm, i don’t know. i kind of wish otto will show up in his car and beat us in the sprint. maybe even honk at us and ask us to push his car up the climbs.

angelo: yea, that would be really nice if he drove by to say hello but you know otto… he would never do things like that. he thinks stuff like that is too flashy or somehow inconveniencing for us.

otto, i don’t think it’s possible for you to be ostentatious even if you tried. please, inconvenience us whenever you’d like. whether you want to hear it or not, we owe.

sox
