Extreme Randonneuring going on.

[Retrorockit]

Solfiane Sehili is trying to set a world record biking unsupported across Eurasia. Portugal to Vladivostock. The only udpate along the way required the interviewer to hop on a bike and talk to him while riding. He says nice thing a bout the Highlands MTB race. It's his favorite because it's the toughest "in" Europe.

Nothing very retro about it. But here it is.

I played around with some buttons on the tracker, and the one that says Photo is actually videos. So no Instagerm account required. So there's more than Dot Watching to be had there.
He needs to do 300k a day to make this work now. Problems with the Chinese border have been a big issue for him. A long detour through the Himalayas due to that. He will have ridden an extra 3,000k due to various detours to make the same trip from Portugal to Vladivostok. At Altai Mongolia he was about even with the previous record holder, but now he's out in front again.
