From using our post times of when we saw Kavinoky start and finish today, he went from Bristol, TN to Fort Chiswell, VA in 4.5 hours. That distance on bike is 80 miles with a ton of up an down elevation, so definitely not an easy route. You would expect his average speed to be lower than the 11 mph average he sustained thus far. But 80 miles in 4.5 hours is 17.8 mph. All this on very hilly terrain with mountain bikes and Kavinoky's performance so far? Definitely a cheat.
Yes, if there was every any doubt, today should be the clincher. Those times are ridiculous especially considering this is what, his fourth day in a row? He's crediting his new Camelbak for being able to do "80+ mile days". What a joke.
