Ultimate Cycling Tour
Now that I know how much Scott Trost likes to suffer, I’m sure he’ll be often with Jen on their honeymoon trying to beat Beaumont’s record.
Scottish cyclist Mark Beaumont, 25, has completed an around-the-world ride in 195 days to break the record (pending Guinness certification) by 81 days. Beaumont rode 18,400 miles (29,611 km) averaging about 100 miles (160 km) per day. The ride ended last Friday where it began at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, after which Beaumont declared, “I am very much looking forward to not getting on the bike tomorrow.” A CNN video report is at http://tinyurl.com/2au4fu
