Weily once again tested his bike and his bones at the Squamish "Test the Metal", 67km, mountain trail bicycle race. At this rest stop the cramping in his legs and soreness in his back made it virtually impossible for him to smile for the camera. He finished the punishing track in just over 5 hours....yes that's five hours of up and down the BC coastal mountains! Five hours was more than an hour better than last years time but then last year he was in the final stages of getting married. When he was "much younger" he did it in around 4 hours. This race attracts some 800 riders from all over the place and is one of the most popular in North America. I guess if your with 800 other riders we can't quite declare him totally crazy but....67km, hills, five hours?
