Jens should be worried!
Following the change in the rules, German Jens Voigt became the first rider to attempt the hour, on 18 September 2014 at the Velodrome Suisse, Grenchen, Switzerland.[23][24] He set a new record of 51.110 km (31.758 mi)
Just a little over 19 is my best solo. I've only tried a couple of times though.

I could hit them with my pea shooter pretty easily since it has optics. But, it would get me in trouble pretty quickly. Our police chief lives two streets over, and he would be the first one there to handcuff me. Even though we are good friends.

I need to plug my steering wheel back in to the computer. I was doing daily laps on the Nordschleiffe and was really close to breaking 8:00 in the BMW M3 E30, gotta break that barrier.
That's way better than the IRL best time, but well short of the Assetto Corsa best time.

If we’re not talking motion platform, it’s amazing what you can do with a discarded seat from a Prelude and some 2x4s.

I confess ignorance of the law in this case, but I know your cat isn’t supposed to be stalking in my yard.
