Having conquered the record for cycling the length of the UK and back, endurance cyclist Dr Sarah Ruggins is taking her next challenge continental, setting out to become the fastest person to ride solo from the bottom to the top of Europe.
Ruggins, a PhD-qualified finance professional from Canada who is based in Gloucestershire, will start her attempt on 5 June in Tarifa, Spain, the southernmost point of mainland Europe, heading to her finish in Nordkapp in the north of Norway.
