Reply With QuoteChapeau indeed.
The news reports don’t even describe Bingham as a cyclist: “an aerodynamics specialist and race engineer”. Just imagine what is going to happen when Pippo gets his teeth into the challenge…

Brilliant…so aero!
CdA 0.15 iirc, that’s VERY slippery

Impressive ride. When Ganna gets that package I wonder if he can beat Boardmans benchmark?
That's still the proper hour record in my book.Originally Posted by Montello
Interesting history on the iconic 'hour record'

I hope Ganna has a go, Boardman remains under rated, his record could stand for a long time.
There it goes again. Wow!

Interesting to see its still a couple of k behind Boardmans aero attempt. Didnt Obrey beat Boardman on the washing machine bottom bracket bike, but then the governing body really threw their teddys out of the pram.
Not so, he’s beaten Boardmans superman position record. This unifies all the records under the new rules.
Boardmans record was impressive. Underrated ride imho.
You are correct I mis read the distances, all the more impressive
