Wow! Congratulations on your ride!

I just read Jan's account of PBP on his blog and I think what you did
is amazing.

For quite a bit of the ride I rode with two riders on Moultons - so at times the little wheel bike out numbered the bike wheel bikes in our little group. I think we gained a bit more respect from those we rode with that wondered why we were riding 'clown' bikes. Probably the many of the rest did not get it, but wondered why we were still up with them.
