It may be the fastest, but I am quite sure that there have been
other races near by. The European Championship last years was
won with a riding time of 8:09 with, I guess, more than 10
riders staying under 9 hours. And I read about some Australian
riders finishing around 7 hours, but I am not sure when and
where (could it be Tom Thomson? Any RC down-under?).
