Branson in new kite-surf record bid
Richard Branson today embarked on a fresh bid to set two world records by kite-surfing across the English Channel – 24 hours after being forced to abort his initial bid.
The 61-year-old Virgin tycoon hopes to become the oldest person to cross the Channel by kite-surf and also break the record set by his son Sam only yesterday for the fastest kite-surf crossing.
