As usual, Sheldon Brown to the rescue -- http://sheldonbrown.com/gears/

ryand 09-18-06 10:10 AM

apparently i am at 80.6 gear inches.

zempf 09-18-06 10:14 AM

I get 122,632 pedals for you, then (156 miles * 5280 feet/mile * 12 inches/foot / number of gear inches, if my math is right).

ryand 09-18-06 10:17 AM

we had a little bit of a detour day one. we went a couple miles out of the way from missing a turn. now re-do it with another 4 miles.

zempf 09-18-06 10:19 AM

Gives you another 3144 pedals, for a grand total of 125,776.

I mapped out the route (well, Saturday's route) on GMaps a while back, if anyone's interested in reliving the fun -- http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=369136.

ryand 09-18-06 10:28 AM

it was a good route. best part everybody is talking about these HUUUGGGEEEE bridges. they were like rollers. i think it was just to help make the people feel good about themselves. i think next year we may do the century ride day one.

edit: also, what was up with all the people getting flats?

whats up with the 90something year old lady riding in heels and being awesome? it was new jersey, there are no answer to these questions...

babychris 09-18-06 11:35 AM

90 something? I thought we agreed they said 93. it was your idea to go with 93.

ryand 09-18-06 11:36 AM

no it wasnt. i was hoping that maybe one of the other people would have known her age. ok, lets reagree on 93. i cant believe we made up an age for her because we knew she was in her 90s.

babychris 09-18-06 11:37 AM

she might not of even been alive. it was new jersey.

ryand 09-18-06 11:39 AM

she was the jersey devil.
