Greetings,
Poots - re 'would bring gears though rather than turning cranks for 120 miles'
Here are the maths for me from last year
One revolution of my cranks / pedals will take me 228 inches along the road.
There are 63,360 inches in a mile
63,360 divided by 228 = 278 revolutions per mile.
278 x 128.36 miles means my legs went round 36,684.08 times.
Everyone - can we organise a thread for the ride again?
Give thanks,
Tim
