Record-breaking long-distance cyclist Mark Beaumont has broken a 127-year British Record on a Penny Farthing bike. The R.White’s Lemonade Penny Farthing One Hour British Record took place on June 15, 2018 at the “World Cycling Revival” festival in Herne Hill, London, UK. Beaumont beat the 21 miles and 180 yards British Record, which was set in 1891 at the same Herne Hill location, and Beaumont cycled 21 miles1616 yards in the hour. British lemonade brand R.White’s is behind all penny farthing activities at the World Cycling Revival three day festival in celebration of its Victorian heritage, which dates back to 1845. The brand supported the headline event, as well as offering penny farthing rides to festival-goers. (Photo by Joe Pepler/PinPepWENN.com)
