That would depend on the length of time for his Sunday (May 18) ride.
Tom's announcement that the DeRosa Idol appeared on Sunday at 1:23PM.
On Sunday morning, Tom's earliest posting started at 8:07AM and
continued at 8:11AM, 8:24AM, 8:28AM, and ending to 8:35AM.  See lines
highlighted in blue:

To test fly Tom's DeRosa Idol, comment on the ride, post the comments
and grab some lunch, he would need to have started at 8:35AM and be
done posting his comments before 1:23PM or 4 hrs and 48 minutes.

4.8 hrs is probably sufficient for accomplishing all that.  I would
call it possible, but in my never humble opinion, unlikely.  Of
course, if Tom had recorded the test ride on Strava and posted the
results, there would be no need for speculation.
