    Below is from the comments below the article. Now, how does she not bonk?


    "I wish that everyone could see her riding in person; it is truly inspiring. We did the ride several times, and she was always there. We couldn't believe it the first time we saw her. The dress and the heels were one thing, but the bike is another! There we were, 20-somethings, with the latest and greatest tires and 21-speed bikes, and there she was, on a one-speed beach-comber with a basket! We also never saw her stop for a break, snack, weather or anything! Keep it up, Tsai! You are amazing!!!"

    I bet her bike was built to last, just like she is! With her life experience, the ride is probably just a piece of cake.
