@redwelly doesn’t own any IUF world record (homologation pending) anymore.
In january, @GizmoDuck took the 24 hours by 2 km (and in August, @Timo_Hirschmann shattered it by 71 more kilometers)
In april, I took the 100 km by 2 minutes (a few weeks before @toutestbon shattered it by 32 minutes).
And yesterday, I broke the 100 miles record by 5 minutes.
The day was quite windy (25-35 kph depending on the weather app, with powerful gusts close to 50). It was really annonying and exhausting for the 4 first hours, before it went down. I started at the speed I was targetting (53 - 54 s/lap → 6 hours for 403 laps). But I slowly started slowing down due to the wind and the exhaustion.
I had to stop three times to go to toilets (even though the stops were really short), which made me lose 3 more minutes. 30 laps from the end, I started going really hard and stopped thinking about the pain. I was watching 1-2 meters in front of me (sometimes even just my aerobars), and pushed until I finally finished the 403rd lap. I had the world record!
Two records in one year isn’t that much… And I won’t go for the 24 hours soon (at least not before june 2026, and I might postpone it to participate in ultra distance races).
I guess that somewhere someone is preparing to shatter your new record, just to maintain the scheme.
Anyway, congrats to your achievement, and enjoy the record while it lasts
I hope so, a record is valuable only if there is persons willing to beat it (and even more if they attempt and fail). Sadly for me, it is absolutely possible to go under 6 hours, and I’m sure it will happen rather soon (probably not before spring though, due to winter and bad weather).
Congratulations! Sounds like an amazing effort especially with the strong winds. Great to see the 100 mile record close in on 6 hours. A super tough target but I’m sure it will be reached before long.
He is so strong! For the past week, he has been telling us that he has trained only for long distance. And today, he pulled 19:01 on a 10k on his G29er! No training for short distances he said… He is crazy!
What @Maxence is trying to tell us here? Let’s see…
What if we take 10k unlimited Unicon and NAUCC results form 2013-2025, sort by time and filter out everything over 20 minutes:
In your table, it seems to me that all these times were achieved in the G36. It’s missing some significant performances that were achieved at the CFM - French Nationals (including the world record of 17 minutes 29 seconds). For the last two UNICON events, the records were not officially recognized.
Congratulations, you are off the charts again this year!
My post above was a quick reference to give an idea of what 19 minutes means in the sport for everyone who is not Simon Jan Moreover, I did not even realize at the time that CFM was ongoing.
I already have a script that pulls such data from Robin’s site. It works well with most NAUCC and Unicon results, but earlier CFMs are configured differently. Should I check if I can pull the relevant CFM data too?
I’m curious on how you do so. Which page do you retrieve? As far as I know, the only public page is the PDF one, which is hard to automatically scrap.
[EDIT] I’ve just found the /printing/competitions/{competition_id}/results page, which display these info outside of a PDF! I’ll probably update UDA so that this page can be accessed through a link from the /results page.
Gert-Jan being the first 36er rider to do a sub-18 is probably one of these mistakes
The endpoint I use only works for CFM 2017, 2018, 2024, 2025.

Yep, I use this endpoint primarily. PM me for details.
[Edit]: No, I use /en/registrants/{registrant}/results pages, loop over and concatenate to reconstruct the data.
P.S. I wrote a parser for the NAUCC track PDF files as well (because during the event the id/results endpoint did not work), but this is too much hassle.
Moreover, I did not even realize at the time that CFM was ongoing.
