I’m home now. The last week, in many ways, seems like a dream. Today I think I’m more mentally and physically exhausted than I have been all week. The drive home took 10+ hours, but I won’t go into all of that. I do want to just sum things up with some numbers that you may/may not find interesting.
We were told that, collectively, we pedaled something like 150,000 miles this week, or 3x the circumference of the planet.
We raised over $1.6 million dollars.
My statistics:
Distance Traveled: ~563 miles
Feet climbed: 15,575
Pedal Strokes: 152,789
Calories Burned: 19,570
Equipment Casualties:
2 Pairs of bib shorts worn through
One cleat broken
One inner tube punctured
One tire in need of replacement
One damaged shifter/brake
One DOA front derailleur
Potentially GPS (some navigation errors and cracked screen)
Other residual bike damage TBD once it goes into the shop
And that’s a wrap folks…thank you again for letting me have the honor of taking you with me on this journey….until next time!
Get some well needed rest. Until the next big ride!
I’m sleeping in tomorrow! I need a break after this vacation!
What an amazing journey…Welcome back Greg!
