mmetcalfe,
I'm curious is your first name Mark? I see you are from Duncanville, Tx. I graduated from DHS in 1987. My name is Kazmer Meszaros. I'm currently living in Sicily, Italy. Please drop me a line. jeepinRN@hotmail.com

You are utterly impressive. What incredible accomplishments. How did you get up to the mileage you're habitually doing? I'm relatively new to this (3 years) and love it. Am always looking for tips from the "Big Guys". Since I'm on the eve of retirement, I going to have some time to get serious!!

History:

Started riding century distance at age 12, racing at 14. Raced USCF through the 1994 season. Qualified to Cat 2 in 1985, finished as a Master 35 plus Cat 3. Started riding long distance in 2001. My favorite season was last year (2005). I was able to race Solo RAAM 2005 with the generous help of over 100 family, friends, cycling clubs, and businesses.
