<blockquote>
At 2 o'clock to-morrow afternoon [[Emil Languetin]] of the [[Bay City Wheelmen]] will start from [[San Leandro]] and endeavor to ride five miles to [[Haywards]] in less than 11 minutes 35 seconds, which is the coast record. He will be paced by his club-mates, [[George Andrews|Andrews]] and [[Alfred Griffiths|Griffiths]], [[Thomas S. Hall|Hall]] and [[A. J. Menne|Menne]], on tandems, and feels confident that he can ride the distance in about eleven minutes flat.
