Don't know how many here have heard about this one..

But here are some facts;

It covers more than 9000 km (5592 miles) and 7 time zones in 24 days.

It's 3 times longer than the Tour de France.

The elevation gain is equivalent to climbing Mt. Everest by bicycle 10 times.

The road distance from Moscow to Vladivostok is farther than the distance from Moscow to Atlanta, Ga.

I think it's equivalent to about 520 laps at Sherman..

Anybody want to try that in 24 days?

It's only about 22 laps a day.
