News - Louise finished the Paris Brest Paris is 81 hours 15 minutes! This is a 1200 kilometer ride with NO SUPPORT! Louise had plenty of support before (night rides and all day rides) AND support afterward, Christie traveled to Paris to meet up with Louise and hang out, touring the area. I can't wait for the "K" in Paris cathedrals and other historical sites. For more follow-up on Louise's performance go the their website and type in her "frame number" #4505.
