I've not watched it (so I don't know anything about the guy or his setup) but TTF suggests that Project 49 rider did his 49min off only 283W, though he did have a few rides on the same course and someone else suggested the course might vary 2-3min with atmospheric conditions. http://www.timetriallingforum.co.uk/index.php?/topic/123025-project-49/&page=2
Supposedly 2 x 1%! Yeah, I don't believe it either.
Not sure I really want to watch it given I'm not going to go under 50, but good on him to have the tenacity to keep repeating the same course until the conditions were right.
I wonder how close he lived to it though? It's 3hrs driving each way for me, which is the only reason I bothered racing at all last time - I'd driven out to the bastard may as well ride it.
shudders 2 x bad = ?
