It appears that one Richard (Dick) Brown rode - presumably on a horse - for 208 miles between Edinburgh and Dumfries clad in a suit of armour. The journey took him - and presumably his horse - four days. It took him another four to rid himself of the cumbersome suit, and another two to clean himself of the bodily waste that had accumulated therein. (So when was the last time you saw someone sitting on the crapper in a suit of armour?)
