| I was just wondering that, peter. I might be up for this if they do. My new bike is about 1/3rd of the weight of the old one. (Fujin SLII). |

Have they banned 'bents? 'cos an HPV team could kick bottom. |
Via the wonder of the google oracle:
Bicycles not allowed: Tandems, bicycles lying, bicycles against the clock, bicycles fixed and gabled handbike 3 wheels.
So I'm guessing tandems, 'bents, time-trial bikes, fixies and 3 wheel handbikes are all not allowed. |

| cant help thinking that the nurburing 24h cycle make more sense. Le mans is too short and small to have team of 8 doing it. |
Might it be more efficient to not change every lap though?
But even so the extra speed and size is going to make some aspects "interesting". |

Might be better and easier to try to have several teams of 4.
Still a long way away anyway... |
