Kurt on day 26, the man just can't stop breaking things!

Looks like Steve read a few posts up-thread about the flatlands as he's now on the Fens somewhere between March and Wisbech. It won't be bleak out there at all today- oh no, not one bit!

He'll probably still have more ascent in the flat lands than Kurt manages over in Florida. Kurt did a ride on 31st Jan - 222 miles and a grand total of 635 feet of ascent. Makes Suffolk look positively hilly by comparison.

just a tad under 200 miles today for Steve.

At some point tomorrow, SA's challenge will be 10% completed. (In terms of time only, of course.)

Looks like he's turned the wick up a bit the last couple days. Hmm, I went for 5432 miles in February but if he keeps turning in 200 mile days he'll go past that

To be fair, between March and Wisbech there is only bleak ...., North, South, East or West ,,,,, Winter, Spring, Summer or Autumn ....

A close shave and a rough day for Kurt yesterday.

Here's a couple of pics which somebody got of Steve from yesterday. He looks well wrapped up, anybody would think it was cold!

Not bad, don't think she really knew how to handle him...love the comments section though, only a few in and the ability to comment without reading, or having a clue, is already in full flow

'Abraham will just about concede that he’s known for his ability to withstand pain – he once tried to get his own wisdom tooth out with a screwdriver, because he didn’t want to miss a time trial the next day – but what he will not do is admit to the magnitude of this undertaking.'

The man is amazing.

Anyone else having trouble with the tracking map? The place names are missing, tried twice today. We have another chance of seeing Steve this weekend but will obviously need to know where he is.
