Today's work after missing a couple rides. I still had trail work to do in the lowest elevation and the swamp but it's smoothing out.

Recovery time 62h, is that hours?

Here's a handy accessory, a wrist mirror for watching for Pumas tracking you and lay out lines for escaping them.

Yeah, that seems long though.

I was reading about the Hellbender 100 in the Carolina Mountains.
It's a 100 mile foot race but seems to be mostly off road on paths a mountain bike could handle.
I think it said the first 5 miles was on pavement. It would be a challenge, lots of fresh air. :D

It should be done in thinner air though. Leadville

But Leadville is so far away you'd be tired before you got there. ;)

Well you could repeatedly ride the Skyline Access Trail to the Ben Lomand trail like Ben Hildred did for 19 straight hours completing one Mt Everest. Lil G and I hiked it as part of our Ben Lomand day.

He also did 55,000 meters in 30 days before work.

I used to work with an Engineer at Westinghouse who was around 60 and legally blind. He had a two car garage
full of bikes including 2 of these. he'd actually ride the damn things around the block on the street. Risky business.
