Eleanor Patricia[1] Hawkins (22 May 1921 – 13 February 1991), better known as Pat Hawkins, was an Australian endurance cyclist from Victoria Park, Perth. In 1940, aged 18 and only 12 months into her cycling career, she set world records for "1,000 miles" and "Seven days". She also set the Australian records for distance travelled in one, two, three, four, five, six and seven days, plus surpassing the Australian professional men's record.
In February 1942, aged 20 years old, she claimed the world record for "Distance covered in a year" with a ride of 45,402.8 miles (73,068.7 km), but one week later her claim was disallowed due to "irregularities in the log sheets".
