World Hour Record
Submitted by admin on Fri, 2006-12-29 23:57.
“Fast Freddy” Markham set a new World Hour Record by cranking 85,4 km in a fully faired recumbent bicycle on the Nissan track in Arizona. Winning $18,000 for the Dempsey-MacCready Prize at the Nissan One Hour Challenge in Casa Grande, AZ, on July 2 2006.
Noting Fred's age of fifty years, it seems the boundaries of human propulsion are not even close yet.
