From Glen Johannesson

Some of you may recognize the graph below. Jake posted many of them on his blog 45inches.blogspot.com. He meticulously recorded his performances climbing up Mt Ventoux (pulse, speed, meters climbed etc) and regularly posted the results for fellow cycling geeks to read and marvel over with jealousy tinged fascination. This graph is different however. This graph is the record of our last ride with Jake. This time we lead Jake instead of us chasing after him. Jake was an inexplicably strong rider and it was a privilege and an honor to lead him out one last time.
