The fastest athlete on this planet? Is Osin Bolt Bolt losing British bicycle Matt Richardson? | Bike news

Who is the fastest athlete on this planet? Many Usain Bolt may say. He has, after all, faster than anyone ever … 9.58 seconds for 100 meters.

If you read this sentence above at a good pace, it will take you about 9.5 to 10 seconds, almost at the same time (almost) it took a thunderbolt in the world in 2009. But is it the fastest athlete on this planet?

Maybe, no. They are indications.

While Bolt is definitely the fastest “running” person, the “informal” title of the fastest athlete may actually belong to a bike passenger, a Dutchman named Harry Lavrin.

He is a path bike, in a 200 -meter race, was wandering around Velodrome in 9.088 seconds. It is a universal universal record, but it is however raw strength, strength and speeds that exceed 80 km per hour (and bike) that collects to make elite athletes very fast.

Thirty years ago, bicycle passengers who were trying this 200 -meter world record, fighting to break the barrier of 10 seconds, but now, just like Bolt, the latest revolution in thinking about what is possible in athletics, the pursuit of a bicycle passenger in the modern era is not a dodging barrier of 10 seconds, but to break nine seconds.

Earlier this year, the British runner Matt Richardson walked faster than the Olympic champion Lavroson at a distance of 200 meters by four hundred seconds, but it is very important that the index is ratified by UCI (the World Grands Group of Bicycle) where he briefly moved away from the legal part of the path.

He took learning, the necessary knowledge, and he now does not only want to break the 200m world record, but to become the first to go less than nine seconds.

So the British bicycle riding is thinking outside the box to challenge their passengers. There is the world championship later this year, but not the Olympic Games, so why don’t you do a little different?

On Thursday in a path in Konya, Türkiye, three British contestants will go alongside only four support employees to Velodrome empty and try to return the United Kingdom not only, but three global records!

Richardson is one, of course. This speed is the world record chasing it in a flash, and it has been incredibly focused, even obsessed.

When asked what he wanted more, the world record or break nine seconds, he said Sky Sports: “I will be disappointed if I don’t break the barrier for nine seconds, I want to go.

“The world record is what it is, so if I go under nine (seconds), I get the record, I want to be the first person ever doing so.

“I know it can be done, I was soon (earlier this year) but now I have a better knowledge of the path, and I have better equipment and I ride in a good time today.”

Richardson only started competing for Great Britain last year after the Paris Olympics, where he won two silver medals and bronze competing for Australia.

Since then, in the colors of GB (born in the United Kingdom), he won the gold in his first appearance in the Nations Cup and three titles in the British Championship.

He is not the only British who wants to rewrite the record records in Türkiye. Two bicycles will try the world record for one hour. Bergvillet will have a goal to ride more than 47,569 km in 60 minutes. This record has stood in the C5 category 11 years ago, so there is confidence from within the British team that Bergfelt experiences and technological progress that it will not only overcome the world record, but also adds greatly to a new one.

Record one hour, well, horrific. The passenger is terrible, although they like to ride a cycling.

It hurts me physically and mentally, and at any time within 60 minutes on the right track, any attempt to make a record can be mistaken if the balance between the maximum speed and the conservation of energy is not achieved.

In addition to trying Bergfelt C5, Charlie Tanfield will attack the Italian Filippo Ganna World Records of 56.792 km per hour.

If it achieves a new global record, it will perform a kilometer every minute every minute on the right track. He said Sky Sports.

“In the last ten minutes, well, terrible! I am not sure that I will be able to walk the next day or a few days after that.

“All I want to do is to do my best. If I implement it well, I will be happy with anything.”

The three British bicycle attempts were made by British bicycle on Thursday, August 14, in Konya, Türkiye.
