Nice presentation. I am sorry to see that your guy didn't make it. Neither did our guy, James Kern. He had lung problems.
You got me in one of the pre-race inspection pics. I am the guy in the green jacket messing with the recumbents.

Nice job! Give you as nice feel as you can get for the RAAM experience from your couch!
Sorry that Rob and James didn't make it this year. I was down at Sebring this past February watching James rip it up on an unreal ride. Really hoping that he was going to show everyone what 'bents can do.... Conditions are everything, though. That's RAAM for ya.... Thanks again!

Very interesting ... thanks for sharing! I have NO aspirations of ever attempting anything like this. Which means, that I have the HIGHEST respect for anyone who does! However, I can say that being a crew member to assist someone who has the capability and aspiration to do so would be very enjoyable.
Beautiful scenery also!

Woodcycl, thanks for the props! Much appreciated. I see you are a fellow Hoosier! Look for me at the Hilly Hundred!
