Road Rage: Fastest circumnavigation of the planet on a bicyle

On 13 December 2015 Andrew Nicholson completed the Fastest Circumnavigation of the World by Bicycle Out of work, and in the twilight of a long and varied athletic career, the death of a friend became a reminder to live each day to the limit. Building on the experience gained as a triple Olympic speed skater, Andrew set off on an epic world record breaking 29,209 km cycle journey. To break the existing Guinness World Record Andrew would need to ride an average of 235 km per day for 4 months, longer than the daily average of the Tour de France. Low on funding and virtually unsupported, Andrew faced a never-ending series of physical, emotional and logistical challenges. Drawing on his resourcefulness and personal experience, Andrew conquered monsoons, extreme heat and the madness of Indian roads in one of the toughest challenges imaginable.
