Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Exactly!  Everyone knows that was Thomas Edison.

He invented the internet, by the way.

And Tunnocks Tea Cakes.

No.

Henry Ford invented everything.

So we were told when Ford bought Jaguar.

Everything was either invented by the Scots, the Chinese or the ancient Greeks as any fule kno who watches QI.

Please could we have a new thread for this?

Please could we have a new thread for this?

Do you think any of it is worth keeping?!?

I have certainly encountered USAnians who believe, without a hint of irony, that Henry Ford invented the motorcar.

Well they're sadly deluded, but he certainly invented the production line.

And the colour black.

[LMT]

Back on topic.

Currently running at 213 miles.

[Jacamo]

Back on topic.

Currently running at 213 miles.

217.8 miles for the day, and beginning to head back to Arkansas.

[hillbilly]

There's a comment on Facebook that he might want to take his time getting back to AK. 

Is that likely to relate to weather or something?

[JonBuoy]

I guess so  -  currently -3 degC with a low of -9 degC forecast overnight  !

Everything that was worth inventing was invented by a R1b haplotype with one particular gene in the HAR switched on.

Except the wheel. That was granted to mankind by a Sumarian god called Ningis******.

It's certainly worth keeping it off this thread!

I can't speak for Kurt but given the option in his situation I would avoid those sorts of temperatures certainly after riding around Florida for a couple of months.

[Salvatore]

There's a comment on Facebook that he might want to take his time getting back to AK. 

Is that likely to relate to weather or something?

Perhaps he should head for Oregon.

[Exit Stage Left]

Indeed.

[citoyen]

I did a bit of a double take at that... and then remembered the temps are Fahrenheit. So not actually that warm after all, but it's all relative.

[madcow]

Yebbut most of Oregon is a bit lumpier than Florida or Arkansas.

Tarzan said he was doing a 12 Hr TT for the HAM'R day later this month so where is that?
FB comment does state  "Beginning the trip back toward to Arkansas", look forward to seeing where he goes.

I make it that he is now over 770 miles ahead of TG on days elapsed 

[Climberruss]

The only 12hr on the UMCA calendar is the Bessies Creek on 9th April. HAM'r day is 11th. This event is in southern Texas just outside Houston.

Feck that's a lot actually 

[Oaky]

About 3.75 days, or just over 1%  at Godwin pace.

[Frank9755]

It's a lot on it's own but it's not in the context of the year if Steve can up his daily mileage, as per his schedule, in March. 
He's not done it in the first few days, but he seems to be on a roll today. 
This is where it gets (more) interesting!

From Wikipedia

For the first two months Godwin's mileage lagged 922 mi (1,484 km) behind Nicholson's schedule.
