Anyone else following the two guys attempting the world record for the "most miles ridden in a year by bicycle?" The current record was set in 1939 (??!??!) by a guy named Tommy Godwin. He rode a mind blowing 75065 miles (120,805km)!!!!!!!
Steven Abraham is the Brit attempting the record. He was unfortunately hit by a motorcycle in March. He took some time off but resumed his attempt. He is well behind the record pace (42207 miles, 67925km)
Kurt Searvogel is an American from Arkansas, I believe he's over 50,000 miles, but still behind the pace set by Godwin.
