I'm usually not a fun of this strange idea but this time I'm happy.

Ashgabat have a very nice velodrome, I remember the Asian Indoor Games :)

Just hope that we'll haven't the annoying fake fan...

Mikkel B will attempt the world hour record today at 18:00 CET

 

Not so sure that he'll actually go for the World Record. It sounds more like just the Danish record, but we'll see.

Anything that's about someone riding one hour at 50km/h+ goes in the books as WR attempt :d

The Danish record is 53.619 km/h, which is the second longest in the world, so it will not be easy for Bjerg to beat Toft Madsen's record. Toft Madsen set his record in Mexico, while Bjerg's attempt will be in Odense. Not really the same conditions.

Toft Madsen's record at European ground is 52.324 km/h, Bjerg record is 52.311 km/h.  Bjerg will very likely beat 52.324 km/h.

For a long distance, riding on sea-level might actually be better than on high altitude like Aguascalientes.

Hey everyone.

I will go to Odense Velodrome today, where Bjerg's attempt will take place, and suppot him in his hour record attempt. I promise to post pictures and a couple of videos from his attempt. 

His attempt starts at 18:00 CET.

    • Ooooooh the group of Canada , they play in Toronto then Vancouver ...look at the distance   
    • now the shooting sport takes a little Christmas break and the new season resumes in January with the Asian Championships for the Shotgun specialists ( Doha, Jan. 11th through 22nd)   the World Cup will be back in late March, beginning in  Tangiers (March 25th through April 3rd, Shotgun specialists only)   the Rifle and Pistol specialists will start their new season with the European 10m Championships in  Yerevan (Feb. 27th through March 5th) and the 1st World Cup stage for them will be in  Granada in April (5th through 13th)   300m, 25m and 50m European Champs will be in  Osijek (May 30th through June 21st), meanwhile the Shotgun European Champs will be held in  Athens from Sept. 27th through Oct. 13th
    • Rare thing not to see Hancock winning gold. 
    • USA will.play in California then Seattle then California ...why hell this long distance , teams should stay in 1 place , this is tiring even for spectators 
    • so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
