Lets see. Was it Dick Rutan who took 10 days to fly around  the world on one 
tank of gas. This guy did it in a few minutes on one burger.

In reviewing some old QSLs with an eye on the DXCC Challenge award, I was 
investigating CE9/R3CA to determine whether it was Antarctica or S. 
Shetland.

Since I can't lay my hand on the card at the moment to look, I was doing a 
Google search that brought me to a website with some photos.

If you look at the fourth one down on this page: 
http://www.hamradio.ru/rrc/PHOTOS/photo_e.asp?ID=8&PAGE=1 you can see a guy 
riding his bike around the pole. If he circles the pole he will have cut all 
the lines of longitude so I guess he can claim a circumnavigation of the 
Earth.
