Egg-topia…
In my last post, you saw my first attempt at the:
“Across The Pond, Chicken vs. Duck Egg, Cyclosportive Challenge.”
I look at it as an unsuccesful attempt rather than a failed attempt because the eggs I was supposed to pick up and get home uncracked were sold out. As you may remember, Tom, my challenger and cycling friend in England, made it home with a total of five duck eggs… no cracks! Congrats again Tom! It seems farmers in England have no trouble selling their goods as well.
But I couldn’t just let it go. I would have to take another crack at this challenge.
I would have to go above and beyond!

TOM– Thanks… it was lots of fun… but very cold! I’m surprised the eggs didn’t freeze on the way home.
We still have to conjure up our next Challenge… I’ll be thinking. Best, Donald
KRISTIN– Thanks… the plate looks just as good with a certain kind of homemade cookie on it as well!
BRIAN SAIN– My Egg Challenge Lieutenant. Thanks again for taking on the role of dom-egg-tique! That made up for your acting skills. Of course, what can one expect when you’re fighting hypothermia and frostbite!
IAN– Thanks… I guess it’s a little extra drive to get me out in the colder weather.
STACY– Glad I could scramble up your routine with a little fun… a dozen? Just don’t ask for a Baker’s.
Jennifer– Thanks… It’s no marathon but it’ll do. Yes, we are actually working on our next “Across The Pond Challenge.” Who knows what it will be. Stand by…
After the bitter disappointment revealed by the last video, I was moved by this fine sequel: I laughed, I cried, I cheered. The puns, the scenery, the flashing wheels, the excitement, the kid-in-the-hat: this is drama. How will you top this?
SPROCKETBOY– What a glowing review by “the reviewer” himself… my life is complete. Guess I’ll have to figure out how to top it. I’ll give it a try.
very eggciting
The good looking guy with the polka dot hat stole the show again.
I hope your next post deals with the dangers of high cholesterol
Hey folks, you guys are a lot of fun to read and watch. I found your link through a link to Tom’s blog from a daily news letter I read from Ottawa, Canada while I sit in Toronto, Canada at work. I will have to try this challenge someday but the cold winter has set in and riding on a trainer indoors does not provide the same risk factor. Side note, I had a proud moment when I saw the Cervelo in the video, cheers from Canada. IronWes
WILL– Yeah… he’s pretty cool. I just told him you said that and he flashed a huge smile! 
IRONWES– Thanks for reading… it’s been fun. We’re working on our next challenge… maybe it’ll have to wait until Spring… maybe not. I’ll tell my buddy you liked his Cervelo. Cheers to you! Donald
GROOVER– Thanks… luckily no yolk on my face. Yes… it’s chilly… actually cold. My fingers were numb toward the end of that ride… and I had on full gloves. Good thing I didn’t drop the cargo.
