Welcome

Team Cygnus has developed a fully faired recumbent bicycle that can compete with the fastest recumbents in the world. The main goal is to use an optimum man-machine combination to break world records. The Cygnus team consists of technical specialists from various disciplines. Between them they have many years of experience with fully faired recumbents both in racing and in designing. All Cygnus team members are racers at the highest level. Every year they compete in national and international competitions such as Battle Mountain, the European Championship, the World Championship, and the Michigan Human Powered Speed Challenge, but they also attempt to break records on the tracks of RDW, DEKRA and Opel.

Tuesday afternoon and evening

A lot of school children came to watch all the bikes, ask for autographs and sit in the bikes. Busy but nice. A group of students from Reno was also there. We had lunch in the Civic Center as well. After we had some rest we set out for the track again for the speed runs. This evening we had three heats, Jan-Marcel was the first rider in the second heat. A lot of wind tonight across the track. So no legal wind, but Jan-Marcel managed to reach 64.7 mph.

To our great relief the Chinese restaurant was open for business tonight. We got a more than decent meal in good company.
