Time moved to 11:00....or I had the start time wrong, dunno.

Wiggins says he thinks Campenaerts will break his record.

I think you had time wrong; it didn't move, 18:00 Belgian time, started just now.

Yeah, definitely not the most visually enticing event, is it? LOL!!

He is looking good....almost halfway through and he is @ 55.08 KM/H. Wiggins went 54.5km. I imagine some slowdown is inevitable? Hard to believe he can negative split it, but I guess we'll see....

Avg speed going up....halfway through he was up to 55.1 KM/hr. Even if he faded by 1 km/hour from there on, he would still eke out the record.

He has started to slow ever so slightly...was up to 51.15 km/hr and has dropped to 55.11....but only 15 min left. He should have it as long as he doesn't completely implode.

Good thing I had to conduct an interview with a job candidate. Missed most of it.

55km an hour. I can only get that fast now and even before going down hill. And I don't think I could even do that for an hour without just falling over.

Ah c'mon....you can't sustain 34mph?!?!?!

My local Tuesday / Thursday group ride (which is known as one of the faster group rides in the area) has one return stretch of about 6 miles, straight south. If we are drilling it , we can usually hold ~30mph....but we are also rotating and are all completely gassed at the end.

Campenaerts did 34 mph solo for a freakin' hour.....I can't even comprehend how hard that must have been.

I'm not necessarily overly obsessive about aero stuff... but that bike! *drool*

I did 70 kph the other day and wasn't even pedaling; heck no aero tuck even :-)

That is a nice bike. And campagnolo for the win!
