- Insanity 10y agoAbsolutely! I saw it on the news last night, and I must say I would not have guessed his age if it was not mentioned. His cardio is probably better than mine.. :D
- nrki 10y agoApparently his VO2 max is similar to that of a sedentary 50-year-old. http://cyclingmagazine.ca/sections/news/105-year-old-cyclist-sets-hour-record-covering-22-547-km/ http://cyclingmagazine.ca/sections/news/105-year-old-cyclist...
- jMyles 10y agoAhh, roger. Kinda strange that the article doesn't mention that.
- kowdermeister 10y agoChallenge accepted, I'm 34 though :) I really hope I'll have his mental and physical abilities at least.
- basseq 10y agoIt's baller, but I wish they would focus on the fact that a 105-year-old is doing what he's doing, not focusing on a "record" that's a 1/1 attempt. Add enough caveats and everyone's a record-holder in something.
- TylerE 10y agoEvery record is a "1 of 1" until somebody does it.
