*Double Down to the Beach*...CRAZY Stuff!



If you have read my blog for very long you know hubs is a cyclist.

He started riding several years ago.

He quickly became hooked.

He did his first Century ride (100 miles) three years ago.

I did a post about it HERE.

He loves the outdoors and does not have a fear of riding on the road.

Plus...

He's a beast.

No lie.

THIS is what he did Saturday:

The ride was called *Double Down to the Beach.*

He rode with approx 125 other guys....

His first Double Century....

200 miles in one day.

He pedaled a bicycle 204 miles.

It took him 12.5 hours.

Yeah, I have a hard time driving a CAR for 12.5 hours.

Can you even IMAGINE pedaling a bike that long???

Plus....

He is 59.

As in years old.

Here he is at the finish with three of his buddies, that also rode over 200 miles.


Hubs is in the bright yellow shirt.

Give a shout out to these guys!

Proud of you hubs!
