eNews – Largest Ever GPS Bicycle vs Climate Change

October 19, 2022 - An Anglo-Italian pair of cyclists undertook a 4,500-mile cycling adventure with their dog, through seven countries, and created the largest GPS drawing ever made — a 600- mile wide bicycle across Europe — all to draw attention to the scale of climate breakdown.

The couple, Daniel Rayneau-Kirkhope and Arianna Casiraghi, gave up their jobs as physics researchers and began their journey in the summer of 2019 but ran into problems including a knee injury and COVID-19. The actual cycling took about four months overall.

The journey has earned them three world records: the largest GPS drawing ever made, the biggest GPS image drawn only by cycling, and the biggest bicycle ever drawn.
