20 MPH for 12 hours... WOW Dude! Chapeau, very impressive no wonder you were hallucinating for the last 25. Thanks for the Photoset.
In reply to the sub thread I will be 45 in July. At 40 I did a double centruy in one day (STP) I usually do a century or every other year. This year I will try my first 200K a 45th birthday present/Challenge. I am hoping to average 20 KIlometers Per hour ;-) On May 11, 6:50 am, PATRICK MOORE <[email protected]> wrote: > Well, I am suitably impressed.
