I was a crew member for Jeff Brain from Bonney Lake, WA in 1989 and it was wild to witness someone riding for that many hours for over 9 days with about 3 (or less) hours of sleep each day. The top three didn't sleep for the firsrt 2-3 days!:eek:

Coldplay "X&Y" - More of the same, which isn't a bad thing
Lemon Jelly "'64-'95" - I really like this one

I rode this weekend, but only on the road. I'm limiting myself to road for the next month due to a broken clavicle two months ago. Did 37.8 yesterday and 50.3 today. Had to cut today's ride short becuase my achilles tendon was killing me! Had to wait at a park while someone got a car to give me...
