    Amazing, I would've needed to stop for a leak at least once and probably got dizzy going round and round for that long.

    Fantastic achievement! The accompanying pic is great, the guy seems to be very comfortable and at ease, loving every minute of it. Cycling, eh? You just can't beat it!

    On the BBC it said that he never smoked. But, still had a great appetite for wine and women... :)

    He's French so he's lying about the smoking and the women

    True. That did strike me as a bit odd.
    What's that French line? "I only smoke after making lurve. Which is why I'm down to 2 packs a day"... ;)
