The oldest pedal cycle in the world... distance record

On 24th August 2022 Roger Davies from Unicycle.com (UK) went to Belgium to ride a replica of the Kirkpatrick Macmillan bicycle which is reputed to be an example of the oldest pedal cycle in the world. The design dates back to 1839 and the rear cart wheel is powered by a treadle run from long rods near the front wheel. The fastest time previously recorded for the distance travelled in one hour was 16.2 km. Roger did 18.1km so setting a new world record.
