The crew behind every record
Team Pannu — ultracycling crew

One rider. A whole team.

Every Guinness World Record, every podium and every finish line is the work of Team Pannu — the crew chiefs, navigators, mechanics, physiotherapists and nutritionists who plan the routes, run the round-the-clock support and keep the wheels turning. The first Indians to podium at the Virtual Race Across America, the team has powered record rides across India and the United States.

“A great team functions like a finely tuned machine — every member understands their role, works in harmony and contributes towards a common objective. My greatest source of strength is my support crew. As a rider, I cannot afford to give up when so many dedicated individuals are sacrificing their comfort and investing their energy to help me succeed.”
— Bharat Pannu
The full crew · across every race

Every name behind the miles
