How long does it take _you_ to cycle 401.5 km? A week? Two days? A very long day?
What about 6h? That's the new world record, with a fully-faired bicycle, completed by Francesco Russo from Switzerland a few weeks ago, on a car test track in Germany. This record has just been certified.

Maybe the first and last time you will ever see someone who has rigged up a treadle to generate DC power. (Not very efficient! A bicycle is a lot easier). Good exercise though, ha ha. #humanpower #treadle

Hahahahaha got the treadle working again! They had spray painted it all and locked the joints in place. Unbolted and rebolted things, reinforced the frame with some scrap wood, attached to the table, and lubricated with TriFlow lubricant (which has Teflon in it). Worked it until it started moving. Now to drill holes in the table and get another belt or two. #humanpower #treadle
-
Oooh, found a book to purchase about converting treadles (and bicycles, etc.) into usable power for all sorts of devices. "The Human Powered Home" by Tamara Dean! #humanpower #treadle #bicycle #biketooter #engineering #solarpunk

#TIL about Jason Lewis, the first person to circumnavigate the globe by "human power".
He started his 4,833-day journey on July 12, 1994 and completed it on on October 6, 2007.
