It's not often that we meet someone who has biked more miles than we have. It's also unusual to meet an 80-year old on the tour but we met both in Carl, who was visiting from Washington, DC with his wife Joan and their grandaughter. Carl and Joan have logged almost 30,000 miles together on a tandem bike and Carl has ridden almost 60,000 miles in total, so our 9 mile tour was absolutely no challenge at all for him... Amazing and great example for us all. It was a pleasure talking to them as well as the others we met today and yesterday - Liverpool & Manchester, England, Arizona, Idaho, Stockholm and Newcastle, Australia.
