Craig Mitchell rides 273km in one day!!

Well saying Craig had a big day on the bike yesterday is an understatement. While most of us were very pleased with our efforts in completing the Ipswich 100 mile event (169km) Craig took the opportunity to have a huge day on the bike.

Starting out in Brisbane at 3.55am he rode with his good mate Boydie to the start of the Ipswich 100 and when he finished that some 6 hours later he rode back to Brisbane making it a total of 273km for the day.

Realising the enormity of their day Craig and Boydie stopped off at the RE Hotel and drank a couple of jugs of beer in I can only assume their lycra to celebrate a combined distance of 510km before racing the last 10kms home....boys that GOLD!!

Awesome effort mate in setting a new club record for the most kilometres ridden in a single day.

For the record here are his stats for the day:

 Distance            273km

Time	09:27:57
Elapsed Time	12:44:07
