    I'm going large, and stuff the high pressure.

    Controversial I know. I foresee trouble at about the 45-50 minute mark...

    55.45 or higher. I believe he's in the zone for this. Wearing World Champ stripes and cracking the Hour? That's a hell of a pic to have on the wall

    I don't think he'll be allowed to wear his world champ stripes during the attempt. He's world time trial champion, not world hour record champion.

    55.550 or 52.349 and nothing in between :D

    If I had to pick one I'm going for 55.550, bang on his target splits and pray for low pressure to allow it

    He's not getting near 91.556.
    That's the slightly insane faired recumbent/HPV hour record.

    He'll be off pace so he'll pack it in and go again Monday (ihcba)
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.

    55.184km, even if he breaks the record he's still (well) behind the 'peril' in cycling legend status

    Depends, will he have Froome to tell him to get a move on?

    Now that would be a photo op.
