Cycling: The series of hourly world record attempts does not want to stop. Next up is 34-year-old Swede Gustav Erik Larsson (Cult Energy) trying to set a new hour record. The mark that needs to be surpassed is 52,491 kilometers.

Rohan Dennis only set a new record on February 8th at the Velodrome Suisse in Grenchen. Two weeks ago, Dutchman Thomas Dekker failed to break the Australian's world record. Gustav Erik Larsson's hour record attempt is scheduled to take place in Manchester next Saturday.
