Pedal the Ocean

Not the kind of photograph I usually take (or enjoy taking), but this was quite an exciting thing to come across on a walk in South Glenmore Park, near Heritage Park, two days ago. Because I don't get a newspaper, I hadn't heard about this. When we came across them, they were preparing to try out their boat on our Glenmore Reservoir, before travelling to Vancouver. Greg has already been in the Guiness Book of Records. In June 2010, he will attempt to become the first person in history to navigate 3000 miles across the Pacific Ocean from Vancouver to Hawaii. "Greg Kolodziejzyk believes he can set an amazing record. Pedal a high-tech, custom-designed, human–powered boat called WiTHiN 4500 kilometres from Vancouver to Hawaii."
