Dougie Lampkin: 60 km wheeling at the Tourist Trophy !
Some records really leave you speechless, like that of Dougie Lampkin: the multiple world trial champion (seven times outdoors and five times indoors) has managed to complete a tour of the Tourist Trophy road circuit, some 60 km long ( 37.7 miles), on the rear wheel !
To achieve this feat on the Isle of Man, the 40-year-old Briton trained for seven months and had to fight against gusts of winds estimated at 65 km / h, a few rain showers … and even a bus !
