And just maybe I'll come equipped with a board dedicated to efficient pumping...

First attempt - push on a rolls rolls for 50 miles in the rain. Remember I hate being wet and cold while exerting myself.

Second - Pump on randal 125s for some where around 100 miles, much better, still not a full 24 though.

Third (oct.2008)... fall asleep laying on my board while James pulls me behind him. Counts right? Very Happy

Consider me IN at Dorney. I have 30 days to prepare...who knows what is possible? I know what I'm capable of, but I have to admit to being a little nervous/excited at my first Ultraskate!

Great to see you here Laura! We've been doing sessions around Greenlake and just keeping them a little more consistent leading up. Skaters surprise themselves on their personal goals, and no matter what comes, you reflect and learn each time. One really cool thing is often those who come "just" to support often wind up skating much farther than they'd imagined. Mental more than anything!

Sheldon if we can rig up a rollsrolls trailer I'll pull ya along. And I hear you on the rain...we'll be keeping a close watch in the final week.

Rodrigo drop a line when you find a location! Maybe we can get Trevor and others on this one...

How Do Allm Wink

I am in for the whole 9 yards at Dorney, Well hopefuly a little more than 9 yards Laughing

Really looking forward to it.

I have one question though; how is your distance calculated? by GPS, a set measured route at the location or by some other means?

Take care,
Barry Wink

On the San Diego velodrome you might have to talk to the Bicycle club that controls the velodrome. Let me know when you will be doing this maybe I will push and do 20 mile plus. But that's about it for me with my ankles.
