Just Keep Going.....

I just found my new, long term, cycling goal.  :)

Feb. 17th, 2012
Frenchman Robert Marchand entered the cycling record books in the one-hour event at the weekend, three months after celebrating his 100th birthday.
Marchand rode 24.251km around an indoor track to establish the first-ever hour performance in the 100-years-plus category.
"I could have gone faster but I didn't want to," Marchand, who was given clearance by his cardiologist in France before making the attempt, told reporters at the International Cycling Union (UCI) track in Aigle where he spent a week preparing.
"I'm not playing at being a champion," he said. "I just wanted to do something for my 100th birthday."
