Velosure - Official Record Breakers
(PRWEB UK) 22 June 2017 -- Velosure Cycle Claims & Cycle Insurance are delighted to announce that they are now official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS® title holders.
As the team at Velosure are cycling crazy, they decided to make it official and set out on their attempt for Most participants in a static cycle relay in 8 hours.
With the help of brilliantly dedicated members of the public, Velosure smashed the record with a total of 329 participants, 8 better than the previous holders.
The feat took place at the wonderful Eroica Britannia Festival in Buxton, home of “The world’s most handsome bike ride”. The weekend was a rip-roaring affair offering up vintage cycling delights and beautiful sunshine, with revellers kitted out in the finest tweed and merino wool, all too happy to help Velosure Cycle Claims & Cycle Insurance make history.
On the day of the attempt, nerves began to creep in. Would they get enough participants? Would there be enough interest? Worse – would it rain?
Thankfully, the sun played ball and Velosure kicked off proceedings at 11am.
As the day got underway, their madcap effort piqued festivalgoers intrigue and they came thick and fast - some in dapper blazers and astride tandem bikes – people of all sizes and ages mounting our static bike with style and aplomb. The classy, retro fashion choices made for a stark contrast when seeing their ferocious efforts as the pedalling began!
At 7 minutes past 7, after a grueling 8 hours of sheer teamwork, 329 participants had taken the challenge and returned home victorious as official record breakers.
