Tar Heel Riders at the Texas Rando Stampede 1200

A big tip of the cowboy hat to Tim Lucas and Geoff Simons for successfully tackling 750 miles of Texas asphalt and completing the Texas Rando Stampede 1200K. Geoff rolled in with a group of riders at 82:34 while Tim finished at 87:30. I believe it is the first 1200K for both riders, which makes it that much sweeter. I look forward to the ride reports with Texas-sized accounts of torrential rainstorms and miles of tire-devouring, chip & seal roads. Congrats to all riders who participated in the event, including fleche-mate Spencer, and kudos to Dan, Pam, George and all the other organizers of this inaugural event.

Geoff with "Claire."
