  • Yes. I should have used a better word than exist. I wish it was still possible to race competitively to beat some of the big place to place records.

    Whether anyone cares, I am indifferent. I'd only do it for myself. There is hardly much glory in the fanfare of cycling weekly. I just like a challenge.
    In honesty, with what I heard it takes to do a LEJOG record in red tape of the RRA. I'd just do it 'off the books' so to speak. I like to ride my bike, not hassle.
