How were his shifts arranged?
Don't know the details, there's reference to an Arrivee article in 2007 so I'll go back and check my pile of old mags (I was a member from 2006 so I should still have it).
I couldn't do that in my full-time job, I don't get that much time between 'shifts'.
Assuming you work Mon-Fri 9-6 type work. Start an 800km DIY on Friday evening after work. Finish some time on Sunday morning. Sleep. Go to work Monday morning. Finish work Monday evening and ride an overnight 200km, grab a few hours sleep on Tuesday morning before going in to work. Repeat from Friday night...
Greenbank-
Yeah, I briefly thought about doing that when @fussballclub mentioned the last-minute Hyper 600 SR AAA bloody whatsit thingie but I'm quite happy to chill out and not rush around trying to punish myself just to do a thing that's on a forum somewhere. It's a bit like the everesting craze or beating strava segments.
