I am huge Lionel fan, love his videos and behind the scenes look at the build up, but good god it’s painful sometimes watching him experiment with some of this stuff. People have been doing the science behind hour records for a long time, sooo many knowledgeable people out there and just hope he’s talking to some of them and listening to advice.
If track time is limited, do you really need to waste time testing if the red line is slower than the black? It’s a bigger circumference, Longer distance, of course it’s slower! Hell, just pull up video of Wiggins, he did a pretty good job of it. Testing whether head up or turtling is faster? Argh.
Still waiting to get the right gear for training? Lionel, there is a huge track community around here. Quick post on the local track Facebook group and 7,8 people would be rushing down the to track to hook you up and help you out! I bet Veal would be one of the first.
We’re all cheering you on, just please don’t try to reinvent this. Sooo many people that know all the science inside and out would love to help, use it!
Isn’t this consistent with how he approaches everything?
