Briton youngest to ride around world

-

A British motorcycli­st is believed to have become the youngest person to ride around the world in a gruelling journey that saw him lose a third of his body weight.

Henry Crew, from Petersfiel­d, Hampshire, clocked up 55,000 miles on his Ducati Scrambler, experienci­ng extremes of sub-zero temperatur­es and 52C desert heat.

The 23-year-old took up the challenge to raise money and awareness about men’s mental health, and arrived in London on Good Friday 363 days after he set off last year.
