    Wow, I hope it wasn't me that Jinxed you (all that talk of UPDs the
    other day).

    Good to hear the Qu-ax is alright. In the three major UPDs I have had,
    the two times I stayed on my chest, injuries lasted for a week. The one
    time I slid onto my backpack I walked away unscathed.

    I wonder if there is a power roll tutorial...

    That was the first thing in my head when i was leaning forwards
    pedaling like a madman. I totally fell exactly like we discussed, when
    i got home i checked to see if you were online to tell you, haha.

  3. Looks like after 2 days German Speedsters are in the lead.

    If I understand correctly, they've put in 400K so far in 17:31. That
    comes out to 22.8kph(14.2mph).

    I think that was 200K in 8:16 on day 1 and 200K in 9:15 on day 2 for
    24.2kph(15.0mph) and 21.6kph(13.4mph) respectively.

    Looks like they've got some work cut out for them to hit expectations
    according to this poll. The mean of the poll was 25.2kph(15.6mph).
    The median and mode were 25kph(15.5mph). Will the last two days be
    that much faster than the first two days?

    EDIT: Those daily breakdowns are off because one day was a bit under
    and another a bit over 200K (day 1 under, day 2 over) but the overall
    average looks sound.

  4. Doing my best to measure daily distances off of the elevation profile, I
    came up with 198.1K for day 1 and 202.3K for day 2.

    That gives 24kph for day 1, 21.9kph for day 2, and 22.86kph overall.
