The Hour Record

He's about to start

He’s packed in the crowds, eh?

He's go go go

Aguascalientes is about the size of Adelaide and probably harder to get to.

Also Hour Record like watching paint dry.

where is this on?

ah uci https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICk3aID5xLs

christ the place is empty!

54.572 kph av

Plus the commentary is terrible, yawn.

A random Belgian riding a solo time trial in a track up a mountain on a weekday morning in Mexico. No way this shouldn't be more popular :P

Average speed still going up. 55km attempt?

How long will the hour record take?

It will take 1 hour, but you will think it's been 5 hours.

Depends if he beats it or not. Will be hard to get under 60 minutes.

Mexico uses the metric system so I assume that has been accounted for.

Yeah but we're in summer time now

That's a good point, British summer being winter in Mexico.

Worth it for the subtitles.

10mins left and looking good.

Depends if he beats it or not. Will be hard to get under 60 minutes

If he beats the old record, he will definitely do it in under an hour

Will he stay above 55? Strong effort

Motoring! 55 is the new benchmark...

Went on the Cote D' Azur. DQ'd

What an animal

Due to the rounding, as I understand it, they've got to take 10.291 of travelling off his time, but it says he's done 55.089 km...

You travel more than 89m in 10seconds, no? But his average speed was 55km +?
