Wow, that's cooking of course he won't do that in the Triathalon but seems that this new Shiv is pretty fast.

Is that time for 112 miles?  

Unless you were timing in metric and I didn't do the conversion right. That is over 30 MPH sustained!!!

He said motorpacing.  That means drafting off a motorcycle.  Pro cyclists do it a lot - and go a good bit faster.  

It's a nice bike, but slack seat angle, and he's got the seat all the way back.  I wonder how it fits compared to the transition.

Yeah that was the 112 mile course apparently? Still pretty impressive but how big of a difference does the draft from a motorcycle make?
