Cyclist Crosses India in 8 Days, Beating World Record

A young cyclist from India has ridden from Kashmir, in the very north of the country, to the town of Kanyakumari in the very south, in eight days, one hour and 37 minutes.
Professional cyclist Adil Teli, 23, finished the nearly 3,600-kilometer journey six hours and one minute faster than the current Guinness World Record. That record was set in September 2020 by Om Mahajan, who was just 17 at the time.
Teli, who is from Kashmir, said the most difficult part of the journey was the high temperatures in the south of the country. "Coming from the mountains, I am not used to hot weather," he told The Indian Express.

To beat the record, Teli studied Mahajan's route and how he rested. Teli started his journey in the city of Srinagar and rode his bike for nearly 20 hours every day, often resting during the hot afternoons when the temperature was higher.
Parts of the ride were so difficult and painful that Teli wanted to stop, but thinking about his parents' faces helped him continue, he said.
He rode through some of India's biggest cities, including Delhi, Agra, Gwalior, Hyderabad and Madurai. His journey ended in Kanyakumari on March 30 at about 9 a.m.
Teli said that he had wanted to achieve the record ever since he became a professional cyclist. Now he hopes his journey will encourage more people in India to get on their bikes too.
