Record-breaking distance cyclist Mark Beaumont has just reached the end of his trip down the Americas, arriving in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, after 268 days on the road.
The 27-year-old Scot started in Anchorage, Alaska, pedalling 13,080 miles through 12 countries. In between, he found the time to reach the summit of the highest peaks in North and South America, Mount McKinley and Aconcagua, AND his video camera became his best mate!
At around 3pm UK time, Mark Tweeted that he'd finally reached the finishing line.
