A world away from Le Tour, fifty-year old Fred Markham has set a new world record for distance travelled by a human powered vehicle in one hour. He cranked out 53.4 miles. Maybe Jan Ullrich should put his unused tour legs to good use and give this a shot. (Via).

(If I back-commented on everything that I find comment-worthy on this blog, you’d have a lot to look for. So I’l leave it at this, for now.)
Thanks Kim, just wish my nuggets of interest were getting the 60-plus comments you seem to manage with each post! One day. . . .
