Lael Wilcox around the world

[EltonFrog]

I’m very late to the party with this, having listened to Jenny Graham’s excellent audiobook, i have just started to listen Leal’s podcast, very much enjoying it so far.

The bike build video may interest you for ten minutes or so if you need a diversion from your day. HERE

Well this is weird.

Until last Thursday I wasn’t aware of this world record attempt, and I have been binge listening to the podcast while decorating.

When I got to day 86 and she’s approaching Vancouver I wondered if she rode over the Lions Gate Bridge. I checked it out on her website and she did, and around the edge of Stanley Park.

The same day I did a short ride on my Brompton through the park!

What a shame I didn’t know about it, I could’ve given her a wave.

Her route.

My route

I wonder if that’s why the traffic was backlogged on the bridge.

I wonder if that’s why the traffic was backlogged on the bridge.

Unlikely.
Traffic backed up over the bridge is nothing new; its been getting worse for years and years and years.
