Texel Church Hunt

I know you've wondered this question all of your life, well you're about to find out, because this dropbear will be attempting to answer:

Can all 18 Churches on Texel be visited in 1 winter day by bike?

I've worked out (with the help of Google Maps - Texel Church Hunt) that the route will be 51.5km long. This excludes me getting lost, or piss farting around within the towns, but if I ride at about 11km/hr then that's around 5 hours at full speed without breaks.
So can an unfit dropbear do this in 1 day?

I'll be taking a photo of each checkpoint for proof.

So, can it be done?

(to be continued)

Me, Nathan and Ross did 92km in 6 hours. Of course, it was summer, but there was no Sun (cloudy weather) and, to be honest, I'm not in the greatest shape ever.

So... yeah, it can be done. GO FOR IT!

92km in 6 hours? Geez.. ok I'm not that fit. I'm desperately hoping there'll be no wind too, but the weather report isn't looking good.

You've given me more inspiration... hooray!
