I haven’t been able to find much this week on John “Blue Dog” Jurczynski and Mike “Mad Dog” Gallagher attempt to break the Guinness spinning record. I did find an article written on Tuesday from the local Laconia paper. According to that article, they were still trying to get enough people to satisfy Guinness’ witness requirements.
They need to ride until 8:17 PM EST tonight to break the record. They have said they want to break it by a good margin but won’t reveal by how much until the match the record. The Laconia Athletic & Swim Club have posted some pictures of Cycle Mania 2007 that show John and Mike riding. Hopefully they’re still riding and will keep going for a little longer. Although I can see riding that much out on the road, I really don’t think I could do it on a spin bike.

Hopefully something comes out today. Whenever I’m on the rollers a couple hours I just think “hey, some people ride like this for days” and it seems to help.
