Guy Martin is pushing his experience and knowledge to the limits as he attempts to become the first person to cross the 'English Channel' from 'Hythe' in Kent (England) to the region of 'Hauts-de-France' (France), in a human-powered airship. In this grueling attempt, Guy will be pedaling a bike frame suspended from a helium-filled balloon that is as big as a bus. He will be under the expert tutelage of Stéphane Rousson, a French inventor and skilled pedal-powered airship constructor. Whilst Stéphane fine tunes his Magnificent Flying Machine, Guy will be learning the ropes and preparing for any eventuality that fate (or the weather) will throw at him. Only when they are ready and the correct opportunity in the weather presents itself ... then it's 'Game On'.
