Hi, i'm going to ride in the recumbent group in Vätternrundan. The only
problem is my speed: i did a 300 km test ride in 17 hours, or 17.6 km/h
avverage speed. If we leave 5.30, there is only 5.5 hours to avoid being
"tagen fron banan", whatever that means, in Jönköping stop, which closes
at 11:00. This means 19.8 km/h average speed, which might be hard for
me, at least into head wind. I asked if i can start earlier, like slow
upright riders do, but i'm told that "they have agreed with police that
recumbent group starts 2 min. after everybody else". Does this mean
there will be police escort for the group ;) Or if we split up, will
everybody have their own police ;)
