What did you do?

 Frank, you claimed to have ridden coast to coast. With your claims of the
way you ride I simply cannot believe you did that because over a large
part of that trip you have to ride on main roads and you're obviously
still alive and drivers would not put up with someone that rides a dead
slow touring bike taking the lane. Even route 66  which is a nothing road
with little traffic on it would be the end of you.

And yet, we did that. Not Route 66; we were much farther north. Do you need me to post scans of newspaper interviews, or what?
Tom's argument is silly, as usual. "I think it's too scary and dangerous, so you cannot possibly have done it."
Tom, you're wrong. Deal with it.
