Day 6 has come to a close. It included hail, a few storms, and only 90 minutes of sleep. Arvid has ridden the last 2 laps faster (about an hour compared to 1:07-1:10), and is taking a short break. Day…

Since Arvid is riding locally, he’s been thankful to have tons of visitors come out to cheer him on. Some of you have made the trek by bike and come alongside him. With that in mind, we wanted to clarify…

From a day or two ago in the rain…

With an extra sleep yesterday (2 hours to deal with fluid retention), we knew Arvid would come in under the daily goal (442). He still put up impressive numbers. Hopefully the thunderstorm stays away and the winds remain calm. Day…

Arvid is cycling on Henderson Hwy from Hodinott to Lockport and back repeatedly. You can find him on the road pretty much any time of the day, unless he is eating or sleeping. If that is the case, he will be…

Arvid has finished his third day at 10am. He is on record pace, but there will be many challenges yet to come. Since the terrain is always the same, the hope is to settle into some kind of routine and…

Since Arvid started at 10am, the day ticks over at 10am. He needs to average 442km every 24 hours in order to beat the current Guinness World Record. On day 1, Arvid built a 100km buffer over that average pace.…

Arvid’s been on the road for a full 24 hours now. When he’s on a ride I usually go to bed thinking, “He’s still biking.” And wake up thinking, “He’s still biking.” Look back to the roadside crew’s posts for the night’s…

Media has arrived, we’ve prayed for the ride, and Arvid is minutes away.

The food is packed, the tent is set up, the rain is falling… Tomorrow marks the beginning of Arvid’s 10,000km journey. Come out to 5839 Henderson Hwy at 10am to see him off!
