In theory, there is no upper limit to the number of players who could take part in such a race, Zernicke said, although they have not experimented with more than six racing at a time.

The bike is still a research project for the moment, Zernicke added, although the technology could also be applied to treadmills for would-be marathon runners and be a feature of a gym near you within a few years.

As for Domorazki, the researcher exhibiting the bike, he has a long day in the saddle ahead of him.

"He's only just started," said Zernicke.

"But his colleague yesterday gave up at around 4:00 pm after cycling around 30 kilometres (19 miles)."

"I just can't take it any more," the shattered cyclist said, according to Zernicke.
