CommentsNancy BuchananNancy Buchanan Nice work. Amanda Coker in the US already has 59000 miles this year though so your girl won't have made it. And she must know that Amanda has her beat. The competition was pretty well publicisedLike · Reply · 15 minsNancy BuchananNancy Buchanan Oh I see Amanda is mentioned in the article. Different set of rules. That is bizarre. Amanda has the record as far as I am concerned.Like · Reply · 13 minsMike FarringtonMike Farrington So if they rode to a different set of rules then surely both will hold the (different) recordLike · Reply · 11 minsNancy BuchananNancy Buchanan They seem to both be claiming the same record though Mike.Like · Reply · 10 minsNancy BuchananNancy Buchanan Amanda claimed it in October or so, then just kept riding. I think she might have the overall record by now even. Nope - some American guy clocked 122 000 km this year.
