    Hoogland's record was phenomenal. On level ground, a smooth surface and in still air, most racers can't get their bicycles up to the average speed that Hoogland achieved over the kilometer he rode, let alone the top speed he achieved. Go, Hoogland!

    The one kilo speed boggles my mind. My top speed going downhill in the past few years is 78 km per hour ( about a 13-15 percent gradient. BRavo sir.. i am a canadian and very pleased for our team results. The one km is not in the olympics? Sheesh such a great event!!!!

      35kph for an km?
      That's easy. There was a time i could do that on an MTB.
      I think currently my max average on 1 km would be 40-45 kph on a roadbike. But that's with an easy warming up rolling start.
      Doing 65kph average WITH AN STANDING START!!!. is absolutely bonkers and insanity.

    I'm not sure why but some GCN videos have ridiculous volume levels. Guys, it's not necessary to have your volume levels so high. It actually helps dynamics by lowing them to a place where things sound better and the mix comes through clearer.

This all during winter, outside, dealing with rough roads and cars and on an Opus Mode modified to be single speed. I have ordered however the Garmin Tacx Neo 2T so I can train indoors in better conditions as soon snow will make biking very slow and salty here in Ontario.

      No height does not limit your odds, Just look at Wout van Aert.
      It does limit in what you can excel. Neither of us will ever become a good climber.
      What every athlete needs is frequent and consistent low intensity training. Mixed up with 20% high intensity workouts.
      Your Tacx can help with that.

    2:36 as it happens that is about the fastest I have ever been on a bike - on an arrow-straight descent with about half a mile of visibility a couple of years back. The idea of doing that speed around a velodrome - even on some kind of derestricted e-bike - fills me with terror. The first thing that came into my head watching that video was "soon we're gonna need bigger velodromes" :-)
