such a short day yesterday. ... even to supermen like Steve
That we judge a 200+ day as a short day shows how high the bar is.
Allez Steve
Yes indeed. And today's newsletter implies that the goals may have subtly changed. Steve says he wants to beat Tommy's total - which, IIRC, was 100,000 miles in around 16 months - yet feels he's not in competition with Godwin (or with Kurt or, by implication, Miles). I get the impression Steve's working within his capability in order to get the highest mileage he can in the year, which may be less than Tommy's record, while on the way to that 100,000 total. Interesting! (And, of course, quite likely wrong!).
