Recently a person I know celebrated climbing to space by bike in a year- their total climbed altitude was ~50miles which is generally recognized as the edge of space.

I misremembered and claimed they had climbed to the moon by bike in a year. That's about 650 miles per day, every day, for a year. It's likely beyond the world's best cyclists (the record is 637 miles in a single day, but not sustained over multiple days).
