James in L.A.!

James Bowthorpe cycles triumphantly through L.A.

My friend James is still beating the world record, and he's made it two-thirds of the way around the world! There was an article about him in the Independent yesterday.

That's an excellent interview, Ruby, thanks for sharing it. That Iran experience sounds absolutely terrifying.

So you think you can be our PoT exclusive interviewer when he's done? :D

"At some point a population will get dense enough to include a person who will try and throw a kebab at you as they pass you at speed on the freeway. They will miss, mainly due to a lack of understanding of physics, but the attempt remains. Doner gets wasted, cyclist gets upset and the freeway smells of chilli sauce."

Brilliant.

I'm now following him on twitter!

Hooray James!!! Excellent depiction Ruby! Reno would like to congratulate James in person when he reaches NYC - and can to offer accommodation on a comfy couch or airbed in Queens, if he needs it. Could you pass this on?

That's yes to both Reno and Fugu, incidentally.
