capecyclist Posted June 14, 2010 Share The Freedom challenge kicks off over the next few days./ Best of luck to all the competitors! I completely admire and respect you. May the sun shine down warmly on you in those chilly areas. Check out my mate's blog who is competing on a giant single-speed bike http://onegiantride.blogspot.com/ I saw Glenn last week and he was looking really fit and amp'd about the ride. He rode the race last year on a tandem. The man truly is a machine, technically an awesome rider, fit as can be and is an awesome, level headed guy. Good luck to him and everyone else riding this epic race. We'll see you at the finish line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
