Anyone else following this guy's attempt?
I found him on strava by looking at the leaderboard for January mileage challenge.
He's been doing 220 miles a day!
I gather he'll be doing this all year!

Inspiring.

Hasn't some bureaucratic slip disqualified him already?

I don't think Bruce is recognising them as officiating his miles.
Anyone know the full story around this?

He probably doesnt care.

At the end of the day - the man who does the most miles did the most miles - be it kurt , bruce or steve.

The fact the americans dont recognise it is there loss, is kurt really gonna sit there and claim hes the hamr holder if bruce goes further..... Pretty sad if he does.

Sounds like bruce wasnt american enough !

Yeah I'd go with that.
The miles are clear, he's patently a real rider cranking them out so who gives a flying about a tin pot organisation making statements about not recognising him.
