Just Amazing. Well Done Kurt, Alicia and all involved, it's been an incredible journey to follow.

I'm going to do my own little celebration to a suitable tune HERE HAM'R Time!

It's wonderful that Kurt has achieved this. He deserves all the acclaim that comes his way.

I count myself as a keen club cyclist who specialises in endurance events, but I am not even in the same library as Kurt, let alone the same page.

Congratulations to the both of you. VERY WELL DONE.

Now get back on the bike and lift the total a bit further. But not too far.

Yeah, and just to make sure Kurt knew who to thank, he got his name put up in lights behind it too.

Really good articles, the trails and tribulations that went on, on the way to achieving the record.

Wowbagger · « **Reply #3121 on:** 06 January, 2016, 12:06:08 am »

He posted 269.9km. That's about 168 miles. Will he get to 76000?

IIRC on one of his vids he does say that Alicia wanted him to get to 76 and something thousand miles so I presume so.

That was 76,543.21

So, does Kurt's time run out at midnight on 10/1/16 or does he have until 5:11am to keep clocking up miles? Have the last few days of relatively low mileage been a lull before an all-out effort to the end?
