Hank’s Toughest Challenge | Lands End John o' Groats Record Attempt

Clock00:00, Sunday 4th July 2021

Hank and Mark Beaumont are no strangers to epic cycling challenges and breaking world records. But, this time, we set them a challenge that takes things to a whole new level. Cycling from Lands End to John o' Groats in a time trial relay. Riding 1 hour on, 1 hour off, full gas for almost 2 full days is enough to bring anyone to their knees; even the kings of pain themselves. Would they be able to complete this truly epic ride?

In association with: Argon 18, Nuzest, Lupine, & Chamois Butt'r.
