Description
Mark Beaumont's record-breaking cycle around the world is a testament to human endurance and determination. In 2017, he set off from Paris with a single goal: to circumnavigate the globe in the shortest time possible.
Over the course of 78 days, 14 hours, and 40 minutes, Beaumont pedalled through some of the world's most challenging conditions, covering over 18,000 miles. He smashed two Guinness World Records and beat the previous record by an astonishing 45 days, completing an incredible journey that took him through Europe, Russia, Mongolia, China, Australia, New Zealand, North America, and finally, Portugal, Spain, and France.
This book is a thrilling account of Beaumont's remarkable adventure, offering a unique perspective on the world and a fascinating insight into the mind of an elite athlete. With its inspiring story and vivid descriptions, it's a worthwhile read for anyone interested in adventure, travel, and the human spirit.
