To celebrate the arrival of the 2012 Olympic torch signed by Team GB cycling champion, Laura Trott into the Ripley's 'Legends Gallery', the central London attraction is encouraging visitors to test their stamina and see if they can come close to Laura's impressive 500 metre ladies time trial record of 35.110 seconds via a static bike. Those who aren't quite up to Laura's 'Olympic standards' can still 'spin themselves' to free entry.
