cycling: Thomas Dekker: Hour record attempt in February

February 9, 2015 by Andrew Waldera

485749625

Cycling: Even before Rohan Dennis was able to set the new record of 52,491 kilometers in yesterday's hour world record, Thomas Dekker had registered his hour world record attempt for February 25th. In Aguascalientes (Mexico) it is up to the Dutchman to break Rohan Dennis' new record.

The venue for Thomas Dekker's attempt to set the hour record is the Bicentenary Velodrome in Aguascalientes. Another hour record attempt follows in June. Olympic time trial champion Bradley Wiggins will then want to set a new record in London - but it remains to be seen what time the Brit will beat for the time being.
