Wonder if there's a record for distance climbed in a year?

i dunno, but with over a million ft so far SA must be a contender

Shit, no way! Hope he recovers health, morale and motivation.

Although I'm obviously rooting for the plucky Brit to eventually claim the record.

Oof... After 230 days I imagine it really drags. Still, this is a massive mental challenge and this is where it counts. Good luck to him, and I hope he can get it together. 230days of effort is a lot to throw away.

Come on Steve!

TG also suffering existential angst (from YACF today):

I thought I was on for a better mileage yesterday but seemed to get a big sugar crash in the last few hours which really hammered the speed.
Maybe do better today?
Still haven't shaken off the lurgy but it seems to be clearing up very well.
I was thinking of restarting in July.
I would like it to end one day and a year is already plenty never mind 20 months.
I do need to be doing more but only if I can do that without going backwards soon after.

87bpm average HR for a 26.4kph average speed. Blimey.

My HR is typically in the 85-88 range when I turn on the Garmin after faffing about getting ready for a ride.
