    1993 now, and one nutter in Perth has already done 1 ride of 244km!
    Only 51k for me today, but it was wet.

    One guy in Ibiza nearly did it in 2 rides. 165 and 120 miles in Ibiza, followed by a 20 mile ride on xmas day.

    I'm amazed one local guy did 20 laps of Richmond Park, which equates to 140 miles or so. Nuts, especially as he has a Garmin 705!
