Christian published his report on the record ride allready on droplimits.de in German. I was allowed to publish this also on BentBlog.de and created an English translation. Please note that some expressions in the original are hard to translate and I did some interpretation… Thank you Christian, here is what he wrote: Christian von Ascheberg achieved 1000km after 19h 27min! He broke Jeff Nielsen’s record (1109km) after 21h 36min! This means he may go farther than 1200km in 24h!!! *Update* Apart from Christian also Charles Henry (fully faired) and Andreas Kraus (Partly faired, Bülk) are on the track.

As I reported, Daniel Fenn is going to try to set a new 24 hours record. Jörg Basler and Christian Ascheberg (former 24 hours record holder) are building a team with Daniel and try to break records too. Therefore they came together in the Drop Limits Team and started the respective website. There you will [...] I personally think that the majority of recumbent riders is riding recumbently because it is more comfortable. However, there is of course an active little minority which is interested in high-speeds. Therefore, Lars from Speedmachine Adventures starts a little contest. The 33-year-old Daniel Fenn, born in Bad Kissingen, Germany will try to break the fully faired 24h record in summer 2010. BentBlog talked to the current European champion… |
