| French cyclist Robert Marchand reacts as he arrives before attempting to break his own world cycling record at the age of 105 |
Robert Marchand, a 105-year-old Frenchman, made cycling history on Wednesday by covering 22.528 km in one hour on a track near Paris.
Marchand has a huge following in France and was cheered on by hundreds of fans as he rode round the velodrome at Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines.
However, he fell short of his own previous record of 26.927 km in the over-100s category, which he set in 2014 at the age of 102 years old.
