It was actually 26.9 average, so nearly 27 kph. A very respectable effort indeed over a one hour session. :D :D :D :D

Yes, I am committed to start training to beat his record. Figure if I knuckle down to training once I turn 80, I will have a chance.

He set the 100 year old record at 100 and improved on it at 102. Now he's set the 105 record.
