Yeah, chapeau! By 31 minutes, with a time of 61h 7 minutes.
I knew there was some time to be taken out of the record, when I set it I knew it'd be a record anyway if I finish, so was playing it safe to some extent to make sure I finish, but still had to dig very deep and bettering that is huge. He had a tailwind for the last few hundred kms where I had headwind, which is where he made the difference, but the weather wasn't exaclty on he's side either as there was some kind of a storm in the area he was riding before that.
It looks like @samuli 's Finnish end to end record might be broken tonight. There's another guy going for it who has just nosed in front and who apparently has a tailwind.
