2009 George Street Challenge

This morning's bicycle sprints up George Street were really something to watch!

Here's a video clip from this morning, the first challenger to ever attempt this event on a recumbent bike...



I believe the announcer said "Irving Kirky" was the rider's name, and that he was from Brookline.

Update: I've uploaded two more clips from the footage I shot this morning: Making it look easy, and Amazing Grace (11 years old).

Update2(7-27-09): According to this article in the paper, the recumbent rider's name is Irving Kurki, 65 years old, from Brookline.
