Holy mackerel! Big fat huge kudos to you! I feel like arnaew--so proud of you I could spit, and I don't even know you! I'm just impressed to know someone who can complete such a ride--and survive!
Hope you enjoyed that well-deserved cheeseburger and, I thinking, plenty of R&R.Bad JuJu: Team TE Bianchista

Does a triple double metric make that a "cheeseburger, cheeseburger, cheeseburger" day?
To think, MP, you could have stayed home and watched the Princess Bride on TV yesterday afternoon. The "to the pain" scene must have been on just as you were on your last 200k. I'll take a little credit for sending good vibes to you.

O M G! I'm sitting here with my mouth hanging open in awe... that is a looooong ride!
excellent time you made too... wow... we're not worthy... LOL!
Honestly, the hardest part for me to try to wrap my mind around is the whole "I got 45 minutes of sleep" thing... I don't think I could even function on that little sleep! wow wow wow... you just plain ole ROCK!

I am stunned and overwhelmed by the wonderful and supportive responses you guys are posting here. You are an amazing and loving group of women.
Yes, it was quite literally the best bacon cheeseburger I have EVER had.
A ride report will come later today. It will be long, but not as long as the ride...Sarah

Hi MP- Congrats to you! EXCELLENT job! Amazing what we can do and your endurance is truly remarkable. I too was thinking of you Saturday and hoping you would finish! AND you did it well below the cut off time.
What I'd be interested in knowing is how you did food wise, what you discovered about brevets, how you are doing now, and what it was like to be on your bike for such a long time.
I'll be Homey will be proud of you too!
Keep us posted! Nancy

Holy Smokin Guns MP! Let me see - this gets you the She-Ra Princess of Power Tiara, the Purple Robe, a whole passle of manservants to wait on you hand and foot And the Mighty Top Tube Scepter! Well Done my Friend!
I'll be adding yet another name to my list of ppl that inspire me - most of them right here on this board!Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
