Mike Hall Arrived in SLC

World Cycle Grand Tour leader Mike Hall arrives in Salt Lake City, the boys at Reynolds took him out for breakfast, and sorted out a well overdue service for his bike. The wheels have been faultless, only half the world to go now. Here is the press release:

West Jordan, UT - Reynolds Cycling, a worldwide leader in the design and manufacture
of high performance bicycle wheels, will welcome its sponsored rider, Mike Hall, as the long-distance cyclist passes through West Jordan this Thursday, May 3.Hall is  

currently leading the World Cycle Racing Grand Tour, a brutal, 18,000-mile race
against the clock.

  

"This race is the distance of five
Tours de France,which is just unfathomable by non-superhumans," stated Reynolds Cycling's Director of Sales and Marketing Rob Aguero.  

"Mike, who is winning by a big margin, is an amazing athlete and we're proud that he put his trust in Reynolds wheels for this important race."

Hall is riding custom Reynolds 46mm wheels with disc hubs, a setup that he planned at
length with Reynolds' distributor in the United Kingdom, Upgrade Bikes.

Experience the Ride of the Forty Six

When Hall passes through West Jordan, he will be more than fifty
percent of the way through his race, which started on
February 18, 2012, in his home country of England. His participation
in the race is both a quest to break the current World Record
for global circumnavigation by bicycle, and a fundraising effort
for the charity Cycle-a-Difference.

This is Hall's first attempt at the World Cycle Racing Grand Tour,
and he is one of ten competitors. His progress, and a link to his own
website, is viewable at the website www.worldcycleracing.com.
