Martin did indeed become Danish national TT champion for the third year straight. He beat the current U23 TT World Champion by 25sec. He rode the 39.8km course in 46:05 which is 51.8km/h.

Thanks! Yes, I used the POC Tempor. The course was somewhat technical and twisty, so I don't think I got full advantage of its shape as I had to look quite far forward a lot of the time.

Thanks, Dan!

Below is the best picture I have found (sadly there doesn't seem to be any pictures from out on the course).



I've shaven around 20W of my aero drag on my track bike since January, I did 10km flying start a few weeks ago in Ballerup at 4W below January hour record average power and averaged 53.5 kph. Add 1900m of altitude and I think you guys should mark July 26th on your calendars ;)

Hell yeah, that’s an insane amount of savings. I’m curious what your biggest chunk of that drag was? Massive.

Looking forward to July 26th! Will be following along.

I actually don't know for sure, but have an idea. I changed several things during a couple of months where I got a completely new frame (same model, just new) built up. Calibrated the powermeter, switched speed sensor, even brought my road TT bike to use as a baseline to make sure the gain was real. Before the track bike was same drag as my road TT bike, now it's ~0.01 m2 lower. Next project is trying to see if I can bring some of that gain to the road TT bike.
