  • Okay, I agree with that. But it’s 2018 and not 1972 and the bikes/skin suits are much more “aero”.

    Did Merckx and Moser know what they’re doing and Wiggins just liked the fact London Vélodrome is next door to his house?

  • Yes and if "it's 2018" why are people going to Mexico if it's going to be slower?
    Yes, Wiggins wanted the record in London, essentially his home track. He could've gone faster at altitude and if he really wanted to nail it would've waited for better weather rather than just picking a date and filling stands.
