Riding on a Tiger 1200 GT Explorer on the High-Speed Ring at the Nardo Technical Center in Italy, Ivan traveled more than 4012km in 24 hours, beating the old record of 3406 KM (by more than 600km), which was set by the American rider Carl Reese, on February 26, 2017.

The record attempt was witnessed and validated by a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS adjudicator on 30th April 2023, with a final confirmed distance of 4012.53km. The distance is equivalent to traveling from London to Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza in 24 hours!.

 

“It’s amazing. A Guinness World Record is a big word!” Iván said. “I remember really well at around 4 AM in the night time the Triumph staff said to me: ‘Okay, you have the record in your pocket I think it’s time to stop’. I said: ‘Hey guys, I’m here and I don’t want another crazy rider like me to come and attempt this record again’.”

Ivan was asked if he slept during the event and said: “Believe me I tried, but after 10 minutes I couldn’t sleep because of all the adrenaline inside my body.”
