Not bad times for a couple of the B-grade pro cyclists in the peloton. Bart Lemmen is an all-rounder worker bee on his team and Bouhanni was a sprinter until just last year.
Lemmen hit third on the podium at his hometown 10K this weekend in a time of 33:38. That’s a raging 3:21/km [5:23/mile] pace that the most ardent amateur – this writer included – could only dream of.
Last week Bouhanni banged out a 2 hour 34 minute marathon in Frankfurt. It was the controversy-stalked Frenchman’s first full marathon and reportedly one of the fastest times recorded by an ex-pro cyclist.
