I'd have done the other 0.1 of a mile, me. Honest

[and seriously, what a stupendous performance both of them are putting in]

The score on the doors. A magnificent 223 miles for the Red Road Warrior. He should get a nice long sleep tonight seeing as it's an early finish

GO STEVE!!!

A lot of orange...

@User10119 clearly fed him well, as I knew she would!

I was just catching up with this on YACF - love the cards she had the kids in her class make for him.

Didn't feed him all that much, really. He'd stopped for a proper meal on the way up and got to mine very late so it was just a snack and a giant mug of tea then Z o'clock. I did send him on his way in the morning with some freshly baked flapjack, some cold sossidges and mousetrap cheese. And he got the Best Bed in The World... since the kids were home, so no spare beds, I grabbed some kip on the sofa and Steve got added to the fairly lengthy list of random cyclists who've slept in my bed!

From Jo,

Day 69: In a reversal of the pattern of the last couple of months, Kurt makes a 195 mile journey through Alabama with 1900m of climbing while Steve's 222 mile return from York to MK sticks to the flatlands with less than 1000m of ascent.

Little bit of a funny one but Kurts ride yesterday has been flagged, according to the comments it would appear there is a section of the ride where he averaged 20mph with a 38 BPM heartrate. Looks like an equipment malfunction if that is the case, but somebody has decided to challenge it. Don't suppose it will put Kurt in the best of moods when he gets up and sees it.

Latest stats HERE.
William has not ridden on 16 days out of the last 20, when that boy goes he's going to go BIG

Ian usually gets the Strava details for SA first but he seems to be having a night off.

A smidgeon under 200 today - http://www.strava.com/activities/266674050

0.6 miles under the double ton in 3 minutes under 13 hours riding time. Which means that all he needs to do is ride his bike for 14 hours out of every 24 for the next 10 months and he'll have smashed the Godwin record. Piece of cake!

Steve today over on the other place (on the 'Tarzan' thread, no less!) -

Some "fun day", eh?

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

Chelsea playing football?

That seems very likely!

 

[Justinslow]

That seems very likely!

Oops just got knocked out of champions league.
