Hour Record Official Discussion Thread

[webbie146]

but according to official info 51,7??

this info is so confusing

I ques he is riding 52,8km right now but his average the first 40min was 51,7.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

He is riding laps of 17,5, 17,4..

And just laps ago he was riding 52,8 according to the UCI.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Nah, I don't know what to believe now.

We'll just have to guess what the final distance was at the end of it.
But I think Dennis certainly keeps his record

He did 2/3 rounds at 15s?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Now he is supposedly slower than Brandle...

 

[burning]

Lol, now he's at 51.4km.

No it was the 50 min mark.

Nope, the 50 was an indication that 50mins had passed.

Edit: slow pony

Ow I see This whole thing has me confused lol

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

looks like it's going to be around 51,5.. well, not bad for a guy without a team, but not even remotely close to Dennis

Won't get him a contract, he's done as a cyclist I think.

 

[Netserk]

So slower than Brandle

 

[TMP401]

Could Dekker have broken the record if he'd done more work on line discipline? I think that might be the biggest lesson from this attempt.

I think he made more meters than Dennis with all the red line steering

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

He did ride almost 210 laps..

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

52,250

That was actually close

 

[TMP401]

52.250. Short by a lap?

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

one lap short?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

52.250. Short by a lap?

Yes, sadly

 

[TMP401]

Serious question: should he have had a haircut?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Serious question: should he have had a haircut?

He has much shorter hair than normal

But damn, 250m... 1 lap.. Argh!

Shame on UCI for the bad info tho

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Wow nice effort! Didn't think he'd do that well.

 

[webbie146]

If he'd followed the black line better he would have been very close

 

[Netserk]

52,221.29 km

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Yeah. Lack of track experience
