Paris-Brest-Paris 2007
The 16th edition of the epic randonneur ride Paris-Brest-Paris is complete. Thousands of cyclists from all over the world converge on France once every four years to ride 1,200 kilometers (745 miles) in less than 90 hours.
No, I did not go. I’m not “there yet”, maybe in 2011. A couple of my cycling-friends did though… Albert Meerscheidt and Peter Beeson both participated, and both finished in what I hear was some pretty nasty weather.
Congratulations to Albert, Peter, and all the rando’s that participated, and finished, PBP. I can’t quite ride like you, but I’m better for having ridden with you once or twice.

This is actually my dream in the very very distant future. Congratulations to everyone who even attempted it!
