This episode will interest a work colleague who's planning a world record tandem attempt of John O'Groats to Lands End.

Been a little disappointed by this series so far, it appears he has been very ambitious but keeps falling at the final hurdles or not quite reaching full potential. Don't get me wrong, its still a great show but the last two episodes feel a bit like failures.

The last one was yeah, the tandem bike one was good I guess, always better when something involves an engine though, but still broke the record even if they did have to have a few stops because of issues.

The peaks hill one was good, that bike was a beast, but it did have a few issues but still bagged a prize.

Problem is when you do these types of challenges, especially building stuff from scratch you will have teething problems most of the time, and you need to include that in the shows.
