140 Mile Solo Bicycle Day Ride (VIDEOS)

I found out some new things this day:

1. I can comfortably wear my helmet cam setup for 9 hours.

2. All of the hurricane damaged roads that let me get out of NOLA by bike are repaired.

3. For an old fart (51), I still got game. Spent the whole day on the bike, cranked out 142 miles, and biked to work the next day to spend 9 hours on my feet.

If you only have time to watch one vid, pick Part 2. That's the best one IMO. And you get a very rare look at me in full kit 'bout halfway through it.

PART 1
PART 2 - BEST
PART 3

Each vid is about 12 minutes long.

I am also posting this in Commuting and 50+ forums.
