Robert Young fakes run across America

Observer of various things... wrote:

Regarding the sub 7 minute mile paces before the boots hit the ground, what is the general opinion of what happened?

A. RY knew he could always take rest rides whenever he feels like it through the evening so he therefore made a point of running some quicker paces here and there. In other words he wasn't running a true transcon that required energy conservation so why the hell not throw some speed in there too?

B. The dopes driving the RV (with RY riding in it) were just too stupid to have it run slow enough due to a lead foot. They didn't bank on the public scrutiny of the paces of the tracker.

I think B. It's quite difficult to maintain an exact speed, even if they did have cruise control, unless they check the GPS to confirm the exact speed.

As you can see in the video…Robbie was wearing SKINS for that section through the desert.

Why would Robbie wear SKINS for that desert section?

SKINS look like they would be hot and sweaty in the desert.

So he could take uphill shortcuts without anyone filming him, and claim the full mileage.

.Cruise control does not work below about 25 mph.

That guy looks like he was in the video of people singing to Robbie.

Oh boy.

That was a bunch of heavily medicated people at the nursing home.

Robby likes to do his schtick there. " Look at me, I'm Marathon Man. "

Pretty stupid oversight. They should have brought a bicycle too.

Does Skins have a board of directors to which Jaimie Fuller is accountable as CEO? If so, is it time to start calling for the directors to force Fuller to release Robert's data? Fuller's plan to have an "independent witness" examine the data is unacceptable. Their company sponsored and collaborated in this farce with Michael Speicher driving the RV and handling the data and media along with Dustin Baker. The delays of the data are inexcusable. Young promised to release the data after the run, and it's been days now.

Maybe it's time to start creating some memes about Skins for collaborating in this farce and not being honest and forthright with the release of the data.

We need more reviews!

I have been n contact wit SKINS. They do seem genuine in wanting to review some of his Claims. Specifically they have asked for any and all references to where he claimed to be a professional cyclist. Can everyone please send me all references that you have? I did not screenshot the Wikipedia page before it was edited, showing his claim as a professional cyclist. I also remember seeing someone had posted a screenshot of a page of ?his book? where it claimed that. If you can link or send it to me, I would appreciate it.

OK my third and last update on the 7min pace graph. This one has the post 6/11 data normalized/smoothed from 3 into 12 minute intervals for a more apples to apples comparison with prior tracker data.

All 3 versions are on the google doc. We may want to delete the first two versions to help keep the doc simple. I'll let someone else do that if they want.

this is from the book i think.

I got that link from the google doc. Under the research section there are links to several of his claims as well as some screenshots of the wiki lies.

Let's see who they select - supposedly its a person acceptable to both sides although its not clear how they would determine that.

The Dustbin is working hard: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Robert_HP_Young&action=history

The Guardian article about RY cheating is now the sixth result on a google search for "Robert Young". Nice.
