Having just completed my own circumnavigation of a small moon in an SRV I decided to do a little bit of research and have come across enough other people crazy enough to perform this right of passage that I thought I'd create a new thread to celebrate their achievements.
If you too have driven around an entire planet/moon in an SRV and wish to be added to this exclusive list (or are aware of someone else who deserves to be included) then post the details of the circumnavigation in this thread (I'm afraid some form of proof of your achievement will be required whether that be a video, a detailed account or a testimony from one or more other trusted individuals).
Note: club members who are registered with EDSM will unlock an exclusive Planetary Circumnavigation Club badge.

Evidence ..
On March 2, 3306, as a part of my Perseus Reach expedition route, I entered the undiscovered system FLYA HYPOOE TE-L B9. During my initial scan of this system I discovered a couple small bodies which caught my attention. Upon mapping the pair of potato planets, I decided to perform my first planetary circumnavigation. In this decision, I chose the larger of the two spuds to traverse.
As I am not well versed in videography which limits my documentation options to screen shots and an eye witness testimony, I sent an invitation to my long-time in-game friend and exploration partner Cmdr. Double Eagle. Cmdr. Double Eagle and I met during the Distant Worlds 2 expedition where he found me making my first attempt at group play during an SRV excursion. Our introduction was as comical as frustrating due to my inability to establish two-way voice communication with others; I could receive but not transmit. Our solution was a system of SRV jumps and light flashes. From there, communications have improved dramatically and our friendship has grown.
Cmdr Double Eagle graciously accepted my invitation to accompany me on this epic journey and adventure in exploration. His role was acting as navigator and support in that from a height in his DBX (Astral Vision II) he was able to assist me in maintaining my bearing, spot the best path of travel across difficult terrain, and provide a nudge in the event I got stuck. His accompaniment was invaluable logistically and psychologically as we enjoyed hours of educational, philosophical, and even nonsensical conversation. I wish to sincerely acknowledge my appreciation of Cmdr Double Eagles choice to spend his time making this great memory with me.
Our journey began when I chose to strike out in my SRV from a large impact feature located at 44.3351 by -59.2163 on March 2nd 3306 at 0530 IGT (in game time). Assuming a generally northerly course, I intended to connect with the terminator as a guide to maintain my heading. Collecting screenshot each time I stopped to refuel or repair is how I sought to demonstrate my progress. When Cmdr Double Eagle arrived we began a course along the 0/180 meridian with small detours to avoid some hazardous terrain. While I was speeding along in my SRV Cmdr Double Eagle took time to pioneer the delicate art of planetary rock farming using the Astral Vision II as the plow. The flash of his shields and shower of demolished rocks and dust created an amusing display which was quite entertaining.
On March 9th 3306 at 1354 IGT we arrived at my start location and celebrated our accomplishment. The journey encompassed around 2000 km of travel distance over a time period of 7 days 8hours and 16 minutes driving several hours each day.

Hints and tips for planetary circumnavigators.
2) Primetime Casual's excellent video guide on how to "flive" up a very steep incline.
Further Q&A from video comments:
Q) how do you go about keeping your orbital path so close to passing a surface spot like Farseer? I guess there's just a lot of careful directional course adjustment that we're not seeing in the video?
A) I started a quarter of the way around the planet, set Farseer as the target, and tried to aim for it as much as possible. Got pretty close, although not as close as I'd hoped.
Q) how long did the whole process take? (i.e. how long a gaming session would I need to set aside time for to be able to do this? ... oh, and also, what happens if you log out once you're in stable orbit? where are you and what's your situation when you log back in)
A) It was about 25-30 minutes to get to the point where I could stay up indefinitely. Close to another hour before I had the orbit perfected and could just walk away. Each orbit took 55 minutes or so... something around that, anyway. Eventually I turned off modules, gave myself some premium fuel, and just walked away for a few hours to rack up those SRV distance travelled stats.
So I'd say you'd want to set aside a couple of hours, at least.
If you log out, you lose all momentum (but not altitude) and fall straight down. Easy enough to deal with.
Q) how do you get back down?
A) The easy (but boring) way is to log out. Or, do a bunch of video processing in the background until the game hiccups and deposits you unceremoniously on the surface (which is what happened to me this time around). The last time I did this, without Shadowplay working, I did the whole process in reverse. Point backwards and tilt-boost, but very slowly/gently at first to avoid vertical speed going out of control. And then bounce to a halt, reverse-thrusting between bounces to shed as much momentum as possible. The whole process took another hour.

Q) how long did the whole process take? (i.e. how long a gaming session would I need to set aside time for to be able to do this? ... oh, and also, what happens if you log out once you're in stable orbit? where are you and what's your situation when you log back in)
A) It was about 25-30 minutes to get to the point where I could stay up indefinitely. Close to another hour before I had the orbit perfected and could just walk away. Each orbit took 55 minutes or so... something around that, anyway. Eventually I turned off modules, gave myself some premium fuel, and just walked away for a few hours to rack up those SRV distance travelled stats.
So I'd say you'd want to set aside a couple of hours, at least.
If you log out, you lose all momentum (but not altitude) and fall straight down. Easy enough to deal with.
Q) how do you get back down?
A) The easy (but boring) way is to log out. Or, do a bunch of video processing in the background until the game hiccups and deposits you unceremoniously on the surface (which is what happened to me this time around). The last time I did this, without Shadowplay working, I did the whole process in reverse. Point backwards and tilt-boost, but very slowly/gently at first to avoid vertical speed going out of control. And then bounce to a halt, reverse-thrusting between bounces to shed as much momentum as possible. The whole process took another hour.

Handy tools for planetary circumnavigators.
E.D.I.S.O.N - excellent little utility by Maxine Slayton which lets you input planetary co-ordinates and which will then use text to speach and/or a graphic overlay to direct you to those co-ordinates with a combination of bearing and range.
Here's an example of the HUD overlay.
StatusDisplay - a surface navigation assistant by Robery Maynard which "assists in real-time bearing / distance to destination co-ordinates and can also record the player's session". Among other things this lets you produce really cool maps of your travels.
This is Dav's Hope.
(note: all the coordinates are reversed on that image - my bad - ED coordinates go up and then across, not the other way around). In order to add waypoints and things to your map just edit a copy of that blank image, adding text and graphics as you fancy, then re-upload it as the new Surface image.
SRVTracker - superb utility, originally developed for SRV racing, which can be used to set and then track (via an on-screen overlay) the location of surface waypoints as well as a whole host of other useful features such as the recording and display of telemetry data including things like average and maximum speed.
