Beating the odds - June 2012, six cyclists, having come together as a team less than a day before, would accomplish what many thought to be impossible: race tandem bicycles for 10 hours through biblical thunderstorms, up and down gnarly steep dirt roads, and finish as friends.
The Mad Scientist
Clearly the smartest and most educated person on the team, Dena attended MIT and Harvard and has a PhD in Genetics. She did her post-doc research in aging and neurodegenerative disease. She's been running long-term experiments on the effects of sleep deprivation and extreme physical activity of the brain of aging athletes for several years now. We naively thought that she was just a little nuts to keep doing these events, when in reality, she was using us as lab rats!
