World's First Cycle Trip To the South Pole Achieved

Zothecula writes "Shortly before Christmas, we heard about 35 year-old British adventurer Maria Leijerstam's planned attempt to ride to the South Pole on a recumbent fat-tired tricycle. On December 27th at 1am GMT, she achieved that goal, becoming the first person to ever successfully cycle from the edge of the Antarctic continent to the Pole."

    Actually, even two wheels has not been successfully accomplished yet. Though, to be fair, zero wheels has been done.
