    I was up and about the next day packing up, and even disassembling scaffold. I did pay for it later in the day though.

    My undercarriage was very colourful! :eek:

    WEMBO 24HR solo World Championship in NZ in February could be a possibility!

    Yes, Schwalbe Kojak. Had to be advertised as 'mountain bike'.

    Wow amazing stuff. How was the chafing? Ouch. You had the most kms uphill in a day record too as well didn't you?

    Maybe a unicycle, just for a challenge?

    It's amazing how motivating 3 pieces of paper can be! The final proof.

    At 11am today (GMT+2), a gent by the name of Valerjan Romanovski is attempting my 3 World Records. I actually took the 12 and 48hr WR off him.

    I chatted with him yesterday, and he said he was feeling good and nervous. I wished him good luck for the coming days.

    I hope he does well (but not too well), but I think he could take all 3 records.

    Currently planning my next attempt and when the dates are set in stone, Ill let people know.
