The BBC reports this.
Note that the man started from Paris on July 2 and returned to the French capital on September 18. For 78 days 14 hours and 40 minutes by bike Beaumont overcame about 29 thousand kilometers on the territory of 16 countries.
By the way, on average, Mark overcame 370 km / day. But on a dream the champion took out five hours daily, which allowed him to surpass the previous record holder for 44 days.
As a result, Mark Beaumont rode through Russia, Mongolia, China, then from Beijing flew to Australia and, having reached New Zealand, again by air moved to the United States.
At the same time, Bemont himself assured that on this trip he was inspired by the novel "Around the World in 80 Days" by Jules Verne.
Recall, as reported by "URA-Inform", in the Podolsky district of the capital, more recently, a car driver with Lithuanian numbers smashed a bicycle.
