With a 2500ft climb in the middle. Interesting.

At nearly 10mph....at 5.5%.... for over an hour... with no stops...

Fuck that

I don't know who he is, but he sounds like a character.

Hi Loic, my school time French is rubbish, but i figureing you could ask me directly in English or try a mish mash of the Celtic tongue, you think i hanging off the side of a car, behave. When we rode on the loop from Gillingham/Wincanton then back too Gill, we went submersible as the roads ARE flooded with about 2 an a half feet of water what that is in French? Fcuk'd if i know kid! But what i will say is all the guys i ride with know the kind of suicidal sufferfreak i am. Quick? No. Tenacious as a stoat.and loyal like my dog in the picture.Fcuk Yeah! If your gonna be a bear be a grizzly, but that ride, was the ride of a kodiak bear. Sweet dreams and ride safe. Madd Badd Padd

Epic-est.

Thread ends

How fucking boring must that ride have been.

With an epic following wind I reckon time would have flown by.

Wilko's 317mi 12hr TT is moar epicz.

Not in the Wild West.

I might add this was the RAAM 2011, about 1300 miles in, with about 1500 left to do between him and his team mate.... ;)

VERY little sleep or rest I'd imagine

Pfft. Lovely American roads. Probably lovely temperature. Not on this miserable wet shit hole.

A 5:58am start on a dry, cold prairie highway through Kansas.... not my idea of fun to be honest

Paris - Brest - Paris is the one that bends my mind. I can't see anyone on Strava with a sub 75h time but people do it.

317mi 12hr

waaat?

Dodge City 1939 Michael Curtiz
Wichita 1955 Jacques Tourneur
El Dorado 1966 Howard Hawks

Well done.

Not quite in the same league as the above, but rep is certainly due for this.

Nah, that guys a wanker. He probably got someone to tow him up there with their pizza scooter.

Fuck that, I demand a bigger hole be punched through the air for me, so it's one of these*:

*on the hills only, because on the flat I'll just sit behind you, you fat cunt.

Fair fucking play on the Highgate West KOM, BMMF. I've never ridden up that hill and I'm not sure I want to!

Seeing as it was the proto-forum-ride, thanks to pj (pj), velocio, dicki, rakan, lpg, etc., you've got to make an effort, init.

Continuing the forum theme, I suppose I should now be starting threads expending ridiculous amounts of nervous energy speculating whether I need to 'upgrade' my cheap shit brake lever, mtb pedals, and 32h box section rims, in order to ride betterer, and get some opinions on whether my 165mm cranks are optimum for authentic urban fixie riding up 'killer climbs'.

Don't forget the footbeds.

Oh fuck.
