Long Story Short

Many records fell at the Sebring 12/24 this year. Bacchetta recumbents are wicked fast in the hands of the Killer Bee race team, and very comfortable for the long haul. There was a wide variety of HPV's out there, some looking like they were from another planet. I saw this (--->) fairinged "bent" in middle of the pit road in the pre-dawn darkness. I thought it was the turnaround marker. When it started moving toward me I didn't know whether to stand and fight or run for cover. Incredible performances by many.

Last year 2006 solo RAAM entrant Mitchell Lesack set my age group record. This year I was able to best it by about 17 miles, but I believe someone else topped it by even more. They'll have results up this week sometime. More photos and details later.
