Wow, what a great interview. He definitely used his education (MBA) and his life experience to formulate a winning plan.

Default Focus?


Sometimes I get in trouble for being too focused. I guess it worked this time. I will be happy to field questions here about Hoka Hey 2010 and share what I am learning about 2011. I hope all who can ride it choose to do so.

First off..Congrats!! I rode it as well and really would like to do 2011 but have to try and find a sponsor. 2010 hit my bank account pretty hard. You know anyone that maybe has come into a little $$$ recently?? (Hint, Hint). Just kidding.

Of course we here were all rooting for one of our HDF members to win (IronAss, Masterblaster). Even though they didn't win, it appears that the prize went to a very worthy apponent. Congratulations excalibur and great interview.

Well by this fellas account, if one is spending more than about 1.2 hrs of every 24 stopped (not rolling) AND one is otherwise also following the rules one will be running the next H.H. for the fun and not the profit of it (all things being approx equal to this past race...um unrace.
Excalibur, congrats to you sir for pulling this monster off and winning, truly an epic adventure.
My longest ride was 9000 miles border to border and sea to sea plus interior zigzags and it took three weeks (and a large Grey Goose budget)!!
It just is beyond comprehension to me that he could be riding/rolling an avg of almost 23 hrs a day!!!
Your right about the fellow riders on these trips (mine have been mostly affilliated with Posse/HOG journeys) they are the best guys/gals in the world.
Congrats again
