He's been around a lot, but this was the first time I'd seen a mention
of him.

Drop his name into Google Images; there are several photos on the web.
The distance travelled as reported in the original article appears a
bit low; in one of the images, there's a sign visible that puts his
distance at 405,000 km. That was well past average lunar orbit, and
close to lunar apogee; he's undoubtedly beyond that by now..

Among other things, the bike features a reinforced fork, dual
handlebars, and what I have always thought of as a Postman's
kickstand.
