So really, my guess is that unless he did this on a track, he actually was riding a lot faster than 14 mph for great amounts of his ride.

So, my hat if off to this fine fellow. I wonder how he was riding at 25, 35 and 45 years old. Has he always been a stud?
If memory serves me correctly, he set the hour record sometime last year in a velodrome.
