Extreme Edge
With last week’s announcement of our sponsorship of Team Garmin-Chipotle H30, our GPS-enabled Edge cycling computers have been in the limelight lately. In another realm of the cycling world, one adventurist/cyclist/record-holder has taken his Edge 305 to the extreme. Last week, Jure Robic became the first individual to win the Race Across America (RAAM) solo event for the fourth time. The event started in Oceanside, California on June 8, with cyclists covering 3,014 miles to the finish in Annapolis, Maryland. Jure’s winning time: 8 days, 23 hours, 33 minutes. Crunch those numbers a bit and that’s an average of 376 miles of riding a day.
Not sure where essential life functions like sleeping come in, but one look at Jure, who hails from Slovenia, and you might just believe he subsists on food, water, adrenaline and little else. We’re just glad a bit of Garmin technology (Edge for the bike, nuvi for the support vehicle) was along for Jure’s record-making ride. Thanks to our Garmin distributor in Slovenia for making it all happen.
