We
don't intend doing this every day, but we have just seen that the record for riding
a stationary bicycle has been broken.
The
guy is George Hood, 49, from Aurora, Illinois, USA.
It
is reported that he managed to ride his stationary bike for 85 hours.
It's
not clear if you have to ride for any particular speed to get the record, or if
you can just doddle about.
But
the report we saw said that he averaged 12.7 miles per hour.
He
was allowed to take a nap for 5 minutes every hour, presumably for health and
safety reasons...
He'll
be under observation for the following few days...
