Does anyone remember a couple of British guys, they may have been brothers, who cycled to the center of the earth, which is somewhere out in the middle of China. They had someone, may have been Raleigh build them two 753 Reynolds frames. The two set off with really minimal equipment, and did this. I then later read where they cycled the Rift Valley of Africa, with junker bikes they bought down there. I kept the magazines that had the storys, but have long since lost them. Would like to research these boys, now may be old boys, any info would help. Thanks. Michael Thompson Monroe, Louisiana It was 102F here yesterday, set a record.
