Hour record? Armstrong tests bikes at LA’s ADT velodrome
Lance Armstrong may have his eye on yet another record: the hour. Armstrong made a visit to the ADT Event Center velodrome Sunday to conduct tests on two different bikes. He was accompanied by Johan Bruyneel, Steve Hed, Chris Carmichael, a video crew with boom mike and a still photographer, among others. He made a half-dozen runs of roughly ten laps each, first on a nearly stock Trek F1 track bike equipped with 28-spoke wheels, drop bars and, of course, an SRM power meter.
