This summer, I'll be riding around the world and going after the Guinness Record for fastest circumnavigation by bicycle (female). The current record is 124 days set by Jenny Graham. My goal is to ride the 18,000 miles (29,000 km) in 110 days. Follow along as I deliver daily podcasts from the road. Presented by Quad Lock, the best way to carry your phone on your bike. Music was created by my brother, James Wilcox.
