I'm Michal "The Joggler" Kapral of Toronto, Canada, and I run marathons while "joggling," which is an actual sport that combines jogging and juggling. I hold the Guinness World Record of 2:50:12 for the fastest marathon while juggling three objects. And yes, I also chewed gum every step of the way. Life is a joggling act.

Velomobiles are fast
Impressive speed on these Quest velomobiles. The winner of the 25K race, Ymte Sijbrandij, averaged just under 57 km/h. I've pushed the Mango up to 55 km/h on a flat, but that took some serious huffing and puffing.

It looks like they're going quite fast. And they are, passing the unfaired riders. Then, at 2:55 another Quest goes right on by the camera velo. Wow.
I'm looking forward to attending my local time trial series with the Quest next year. ;)
Yeah, I noticed that. Crazy. The Quest seems quite a bit faster than the Mango, but I like the smaller size of the Mango for city riding.
