Win the bike that makes history

When you buy one of those 266 tickets, you enter our lottery. On June 12th, 2026 (a day before Joe’s 67th birthday), Joe will cross the line. After he's enjoyed a moment to celebrate, a Route 66 official will draw the winner.

Someone - it could be you - will win the very bike that carries Joe the length of the Mother Road and across the finish line.

It's a custom Colnago that Joe (a passionate race bike builder) has meticulously constructed for Route 66.

What's more, the bike will have a Guinness World Record and the spirit of Route 66 ingrained in its DNA forever.

But, if Joe's Colnago doesn't fit you, you'll have the option of requesting a new Colnago (frame only), from the C or V range, in your size (see t&cs for details).

You’ll also get:

  • An official Guinness World Record certificate with your name on it.
  • One of Joe’s signed Route 66 race jerseys
  • A signed copy of Joe’s raw and immersive autobiography, Going the Distance

Every penny and every cent we get from the lottery goes towards making the Route 66 Guinness World Record happen. Your money will get the team and our equipment to the start line in Santa Monica. It’ll help us house and feed our 8-person crew, fuel our race vehicles, and return us home!

£100 is a bit much for me, can I still get involved?
