Managed to find the ride results for "The Bicycling Open" in Philadelphia on 7 June 2015 (see Strava link in post 55 above). The objective was to complete as many laps as possible between 6:45 and 8:00am before the big boys came out to play.
my race result : : Citizens Bicycling Open
Our hero finished 123rd out of 301 male riders. Only out by 103 placings on his imaginary 20th place.
I think a lack of oxygen by spending too much time in the red zone may have adversely affected Mr Brown's cognitive abilities.
