Reclaiming the Bike Balance Record

Tonight the Discovery Center of Idaho is holding their annual fundraising bash: 2018 Science with Style Gala at Chateau des Fleurs in Eagle. I am honored to be a small part of it to promote STEM education by attempting to break the Guinness World Record for Longest Duration Balancing a Bicycle on a Chin. I broke this record a year and a half ago by balancing a bicycle for 2 minute 36 seconds. It was beaten with a run over 3 minutes long and as I was preparing to take the record back, I found out a couple months ago someone else broke, it raising the current bar to 4 minutes 15 seconds. That’s a long time with a very heavy bike (12 Kg / 26.5 lb minimum). With a growth mindset and a lot of practice, I think I can do it.

Big thanks to Ken’s Bicycle Warehouse for providing the bicycle for the attempt!
