You've got to love 188 miles being described as an "easy day".

Day 336 / 117: Kurt relieves the boredom of loops of Flatwoods and instead rides NE to St Augustine on the east coast. A couple of punctures don't stop him completing 212 miles for the day. Steve has yet more wind to deal with as he rides and east-west loop through southern Cambs and Essex for 178 miles.

Day 337 / 118: Kurt sticks the Florida east coast riding south though Orlando towards Palm Beach with some rain but helpful tailwind for a day's total of 225 miles. He is now around 715 miles above the Godwin line. Steve has a planned short day, although technical problems force him to start later than anticipated. He loops to the south west, including a Marsh Gibbon visit and ends the day with 138 miles and around 820 below the Godwin line.

I was riding about 50 miles or so North of MK yesterday and the wind gusts were almost bringing me to a standstill at times (I was on my Brommie so very upright, and quite slow anyway). Yet it seemed like just an ordinary day from inside.

It's been a stormy week for Steve Abraham, with various equipment failures and dreadful weather, but he remains optimistic. A number of people have bet money on Steve breaking this World Record - and he is still confident you'll get your reward in August...

As the challenge is explicitly 365 days long, that isn't a problem.I hope Steve's team realise that next year is a leap year

Day 338 / 119: Kurt heads back to the west Florida coast at Sarasota ending the day with a few repeats of the last stretch to make it 225 miles. Steve starts early, heading west into yet another brutal headwind. He finishes the day early at the Severn View services overlooking the Welsh border. At a 145 miles he is now around 880 miles below Godwin pace but set up nicely for return with the wind over the weekend.

Day 339 / 120: Kurt is back doing loops of Flatwood park, today's windy conditions allowing him to do 211 miles of them. For the first time in many many days Steve gets a long tailwind from the Severn to the Norfolk Broads. His day's total of 233 miles leaves him around 850 miles below the Godwin line.
