Maybe i´m wrong, but at the moment wiggins hasnt broken still the record.

Wanna make a bet he'll break it? I'll give you to 3 to 1, you can decide the stakes.

If not then please be quiet.

What's gonna happen? Is he gonna crash? I completely agree with you if we take about race but he's alone, unless he suddenly has to *** during it, he'll destroy it.

Damn. I haven't been paying that much attention to tt's over the last year but is wiggins really this awesome at age 35? After being merely average at tts all through his 20's. Looks like these days 35 really is the new 20.

Anyway, Oskar Svendsen hasn't been mentioned, and I'm surprised only jens mentioned Ilnur

Be interested to see what Fab could do also Boonen.

Wiggo can't compete with concrete " Martin"

Martin is a monster.

So far I am not convinced wiggo is going to smash it. 1 hour is a long time.

I guys you haven't been paying much attention to cycling if you think 35 is old these days and then to top it all of you mention oscar svendsen who has pretty much retired :eek:

Valverde is 35 and is the leading man in CQ, PCS and World Tour. But he is only the 60th oldest pro and a junior compared to many of the other riders. In 1995, there was only one guy at the age of 35.
