Watching a bit of the tour tonight. Bloody hell those guys are fast. It was the team time trial over about 25 km. They were averaging about 60km/hour. This really put it into perspective for me. For my 15km ride to work I average about 23km/hour according to Strava (I'm stopping for traffic lights though). I can maintain a bit over 30km/hour on the flat. These guys are going twice that! Amazing athletes.
