Road race...10 minutes after a 58 mile solo. Longest solo as well. It was unplanned, but I got a pretty good gap after an attack and had teammates in the field so I figured I would just put my head down. They held the gap to around 20 seconds for the first 20 miles. Then they gave up chasing. I had flatted 70 miles in on another solo flyer a few years before so I kept my foot on the gas just in case.

Won the state crit one year by lapping all but 5 or so guys...3 minute gap. Think I won the state TT by around that one year as well after a 25 mile solo

Crit/last stage of the Tour of Arkansas I flatted on the second lap, got a wheel, went through the pack and bridged up to a 2 man break. We lapped the field 3 times and I kilo'd the guys out for the win and the GC. That would have been around 6-7 minutes.

We should start a "longest failed solo" as well. Have some good stories there.
