Although the statement "That there is a still a strong relationship between length of the Tour and overall speed simply means that the organizers haven't completely compensated for the distance effect with increased difficulty" is perhaps a little strong, as it implies that the distance effect is the main effect at work here? But overall, the flavour of this seems to be that once you factor out race distance, all of the technology etc has made even less difference! Wouldn't it be great to send them all out on 60's bikes and see what happens! | |
