205 miles in a day (Tommy Godwin Challenge) - the Progress thread

[Dogtrousers]

I think that Steve is only doing the concurrent attempt because he feels that the graphics being produced aren't complicated enough.

Day 209: Kurt bounces back after his breathing difficulties and x-ray diagnosis with a 232 mile day. Steve continues to build his distance in preparation for his August reboot with a 145 mile loop through Cambridgeshire. Miles heads out east again for a 168 miles of riding. William appears to have woken from hibernation but is currently 39,980 miles behind WR pace.

Day 210: Kurt continues to show the world that he is undaunted by possible health issues by riding 236 miles from central Wisonsin back to Manitowoc. Steve pushes his daily fenland loop a little further to 193 miles. Miles rides east of Melbourne back home for 86 miles.

Day 211: Kurt knocks off another 219 miles from central Wisconsin to the lake with a little help from the wind. Steve does exactly one Godwin (205.6 miles) on a trip to Boston and back. Miles takes the train north and rides back to Melbourne for 201 miles.

Great to see. When he came up for the Mersey Roads 24, he openly said he was tired/lost a bit of speed.
It looks like he's found his legs again, go Steve.

I thought Steve would have started August with a bang and done 200 miles a day minimum in order to get ahead before winter comes. His mileage is still more than impressive mind.

I think he's saving it all up for the 8th.

Steve does exactly one Godwin (205.6 miles)

Interesting. I think I may make that my challenge for next year - to ride one Godwin: 205.6 miles in a day. I may even start flat route planning.

I'd get it in this year, otherwise it looks like you'll be riding a Searvogel and it'll be a few extra miles...
