Today, five endurance cyclists will begin an epic battle to become the fastest person to cycle around the world. They could notch up an average of up to 225 miles a day.

 

At 12 noon GMT today the riders will set off from the Royal Observatory in Greenwich for the 18,000 World Cycle Race.

 

One of the top contenders, Lee Fancourt, believes he can complete the challenge by riding approximately 225 miles (362km) a day for 80 days. Some days he will clock up to 250 miles a day. Including air travel the whole circumnavigation should take under 90 days, which will smash the Guinness World Record of 106 days, 10hrs and 33mins, set by Alan Bate in 2010.

One of the first ever video clips I got sent on e-mail. Probably around 1999/2000
