JH: The RAAM makes the Tour de France seem like sitting beside the swimming pool, sipping lemonades!

It was pure brutality! I never want to do it again.

I was second to Lon Haldeman who was really well prepared for the effort – much better than me.

You learn a lot about yourself riding a bike across the US from Santa Monica to the Empire State Building in 10 days 10 hours and 59 minutes – and in those days there was no ‘aero’ anything!
