NEW 24hr SOLO Distance Record Broken

rider: Gerd Tschampel (nick: gtchef)
assistants: Petra Tschampel, Maik Kaminski, Michael Bauch, Molly
license: G 1160
distance: 650 Km
hours in motion: 21


oh and while I am here...even though there is not a separate category for 12hrs solo....we must also mention Ziggy again

Ziggy Racek

Here are the details of my best ride on June 17/2011 while in Fano, Denmark

After 12 hours, total distance completed was 466.39km
Moving Time = 11hours, 25 mins
Max Speed = 77.5km
Driving Average = 40.8km

Ziggy.

p.s. In 6 days, total driving distance was 1079.63 km, which was much more successful than NABX



Both fantastic achievements

Congratulations also to the 5 teams that broke the UK team 24hr record...



also congrats to the same challenge at SPO

1. German Libre Team -> 919,94 km
2. Team Peter Lynn -> 919,38 km

56m difference after 24hrs....wow

NEWS NEWS NEWS

We are happy to announce that Arie,John Jansen and Sebastien Thomes had won the 24 hours race at SPO last weekend, at first the papers said that the Libre team Germany had won, but the organisation made a small mistake by changed the last 2 digits, instead of 21,8 km , they use 21.08 , so in the end the Peter Lynn Team was firts with a minor difference of only 160 meters !!! unbelievable !.. way to go guys ! And Arie, be well soon, as you have now some nice white plaster on your ankle (ripped off his ankle bands..) Good winds, Team Xxtreme
