Re: How to get to the Tour de France

#19 sound like a good challenge for the tri-folks in the club. Lynn how many miles are you up to now?

Re: Re: How to get to the Tour de France

On a good day with snorkle and fins I can get half-way across the pool. I float really well, but it is not a very fast or efficient way. When Al and I went to the Tour we went under the English Channel- but on a train-no swimming.

Very optimistic to swim the Atlantic in 30 days![:)) Perhaps Steve could come up with the calculations using the formulas used to calculate rider route times (like the ones you share with my class)!

Re: How to get to the Tour de France

Just last week someone had shown me a similar routing for New York to London. Can't say those guys at Google don't have a sense of humor. Interstingly, Los Angeles to Tokyo returns 'maps not available'.

When I first saw the title of this thread, my immediate thought was the old joke about asking directions in New York:

"Hey buddy, how do you get to Carnegie Hall?"

"Practice, practice, practice!"
