My friend James Bowthorpe cycled for 24 hours on a stationary bike in the window of a cafe on Old Street on Wednesday and Thursday. He went more than 400 miles without getting anywhere!
It's part of his fundraising for the Parkinson's clinic where he volunteers.
James in the morning, about half way through.
James in the evening, about a half an hour from the end.
It looked exhausting. He's doing the Race Across America a year from now, when he'll have to do the same thing ten times in a row with an hour of sleep between each one. That sounds horrible!

That does sound horrible. You edited this post? My dashboard said you called him a ginger.
Love the poster. Also I am interested in the small fact that he changed his clothes at some point.
I first learned about the Race Across America in the Radiolab about the Limits of the Body. Sounds pretty grueling.
