On 15 May 2016 Coker started her ride to set a new distance record. Riding a course in Flatwoods Park in Tampa Bay she rode 237.19 mi (382 km) a day on average.

She beat Billie Fleming’s record for the greatest distance ridden by a woman with months to spare,^[3] after 130 days of riding had managed 29,774 mi (47,917 km) – beating the 1938 record of 29,603.7 mi (47,643 km).^[4]

In April 2017 she surpassed the previous record of 76,076 mi (122,432 km) set by Kurt Searvogel.^[2]

In May 2017 Coker set the new record of 86,573 miles (139,326 km),^[3] beating the previous record by over 10,000 miles (16,093 km).^[1] During the attempt, her longest ride in a single day was 302 mi (486 km), completed on the second to last day.^[3]

After setting the new record, Coker continued cycling in an effort to ride over 100,000 miles. For 77 years that record was held by Tommy Godwin, who set off on January 1939 and eventually finished his ride after reaching the 100,000 mi (160,934 km) mark in May 1940, after 500 days of cycling.^[3] On July 11, 2017, Coker reached 100,000 mi (160,934 km), after 423 straight days of cycling.^[5]

On October 23, 2021, Amanda set a new road record of 512.506 miles (824.8 km) and became the first woman in history to break 500 miles in 24 hours riding solo. During this 24hr attempt, Amanda also broke 10 other WUCA/Guinness World records for other various durations and distances. ^[6] [7]
