Dave Cornthwaite
Amongst other things he has paddleboarded the length of the Mississippi, skateboarded across Australia, swum 1001 miles, written three books, stayed awake for 72 hours in a row without turning crazy, and for years has tried in vain to get Nutella to sponsor his adventures. But will he give up? Never!

How Ness Knight turned the idea to cycle 2000 miles into reality, in five days!
When my friend Kris Hallenga was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 23 she decided to use a desperate situation to give others a chance at a life longer than the one she faced herself.
Her solution was CoppaFeel! A charity dedicated to spreading love for boobs and raising awareness among young people of the symptoms of breast cancer. CoppaFeel!’s methods are unorthodox and superbly creative and they’re working. They’re saving lives.
Here’s a video of their latest awareness-raising tool, a flashmob in the city of London. And here’s a blog from another adventurous supporter of CoppaFeel! Ms Sarah Outen.

I’ll be bullied for this, but I think Michael Buble has absolutely nailed it for anyone feeling like they’re destined for a loveless life. In my dating days this was in my ear before every beautiful or excruciating or banal or life-changing date.
And yes, if you didn’t know, I’ve dated more women than Tim Ferris!
Highlights from my Bikecar journey between Memphis and Miami in April-May 2012. How wonderful, to hop on a strange vehicle and let the wind (I wish!) blow five weeks of experiences in front of ones wheels. It provided challenges of many kinds but ultimately I will look back on this journey fondly, the small encounters make up the big pictures, I hope this video does my journey justice.
