Lachlan Morton has torn around Australia, delivering an astoundingly quick time of 30 days, 9 hours and 59 minutes for the lap of his home nation, according to EF Education EasyPost.

While it's too soon for the usual arbiters to have officially declared it a new cycling record, the effort of over 14,200km that finished at the lighthouse in Port Macquarie at 1:54 pm on Saturday has shaved around a week off the previous fastest-known supported times.
