*I'M* aware of all of this. Every line of it. I had to go through a second bike check, have the bike photographed. And as I was planning to head to doping control, the record was beaten a second time...which means I didn't have to go to doping.
My point is the claim that a UCI record can only be beaten once in 24hrs is false.
Also: we're required to do bike check BEFORE the event anyway. So for the record they check it afterwards, also, and photograph it on the jig.
