now normally I don't bother reading too much of this kind of junk, but this guys ad seems like such a joke it's not even funny. But I thought maybe we could get a good laugh about it in the NG.
I think this guy must be a relative of SuperMan, I did some math on what
he
Quoted message said:
plans to try to do:
15,000 miles in 60 days or less 250 miles per day if riding for 12 hours per day he must AVERAGE just under 21 MPH
now 21 mph is possible I know, but every hour for everyday for 60 days? Sounds almost superhuman.

Well, he'll be riding more than 12 hr/day. The RAAM typically is about 3000 miles completed in about 8 days. Multiply by 5 (to15,000 miles) and you get 40 days. Obviously, I don't think that's feasible. But could a RAAM racer do it in 60 days? I don't know.
400 miles per week vs 300 miles per day is a huge difference. One saddle sore will throw him off schedule.
I think he's looking for someone to buy him a new bike.
I'm looking for someone to buy me a house in Hawaii. Beachfront. How can I scam something on e-bay to obtain that? Actually I would settle for a house at the Jersey shore one block in from the beach. I am not picky. It has to have a huge bathroom with a jacuzzi though. And a gym. Plus a personal trainer. Perferably male, young and nice to look at. ;-) I'm old, not dead.
