BRITISH cyclist Alex Dowsett set a new world hour record by completing 52.937 kilometers at the Manchester Velodrome yesterday.
The 26-year-old Team Movistar rider improved the mark of 52.491km set by Australia’s Rohan Dennis in February.
It is the fourth time the record has been broken since September 2014, and it may not stand for long.
Dowsett’s fellow Briton Bradley Wiggins, the former Tour de France winner and four-time Olympic gold medalist, is scheduled to make an attempt on the record in London on June 7.
