Chapter 2403: Chapter 608: The Flying Scotsman (Subscribe Request)_2

He departed just in time to join the second group led by Kyle Smith.

There were quite a few competitors setting off.

Huang Kaiwen didn’t speed up immediately.

He had a detailed plan for the course, having gone over it multiple times in his head.

The section near Buckingham Palace, like Hyde Park, is relatively flat.

Huang Kaiwen designated Victoria Square as the decisive stage.

Because near Victoria Square, there are uphill sections and turns that make it easier to widen the gap. A total of seven laps, if handled well in each lap, the fight can be settled during the cycling stage.

The triathlon regulations prohibit following others closely, requiring a seven-meter distance.

Riding behind other competitors reduces resistance significantly, allowing better endurance maintenance.

Triathlons advocate all by yourself, and most triathlon races do not allow drafting.

While most were gripping the side of the handlebar to control direction, Huang Kaiwen’s arms were already resting on the aerobars, temporarily relaxing.

With so many riding together, collisions between competitors occur often.

The competition was quite intense.

Especially when exiting Hyde Park, several competitors accelerated their pace to pass first.

Overtaking has its time limits; if you can’t seize the front in tight spaces, you must retreat to the safe distance of 7 meters.

Although Huang Kaiwen pedaled a few times, he had no intention of scrambling forward, looking leisurely as if enjoying the joy of cycling like a passerby.

Making the spectators anxious.

The audience sitting in the car was quite anxious.

"More than ten people have passed already, what is Kevin thinking?"

Inzaghi shouted.

Vieira said: "Your Majesty, a 53 km race isn’t won by leading at the start."

"I know, of course I know, but I also hope Kevin can catch up to the leading group soon."

Inzaghi explained.

The Dutch competitor Hippel Hailt greeted Huang Kaiwen.

Luckily, he wasn’t like in the Tour de France, touching butts.

Otherwise, Huang Kaiwen couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t give him a kick.

"Kevin, why aren’t you catching up?"

Hippel Hailt asked.

"Not the right time, I want to win on the uphill."

Huang Kaiwen said directly, without hiding anything.

Because many people would use the same strategy.

Armstrong’s climbing ability is exceptional; of course, it might also be enhanced by drugs.

The erythropoietin he used could promote red blood cell production, reduce muscle fatigue, but normal use increases the risk of thrombosis.

"Cool, I was thinking the same."

Hippel Hailt said.

"Then we’ll be opponents at that time."

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

"I’m no match for you, my results aren’t good enough."

Hippel Hailt said.

Competitors have a general sense of their rankings.

Even without aiming for medals, challenging a better score and surpassing oneself is also important.

On the way to Buckingham Palace, Huang Kaiwen noticed a stone in front of the car, swept it aside with control to remove it from the track.

Though he didn’t practice as much as usual riders,

his balance is absolutely the best among everyone.

Hailt didn’t complete overtaking within 20 seconds, falling back to a safe distance.

"Huang Kaiwen is currently ranked 13th, beside him is Dutch competitor Hippel Hailt. The second group is passing Buckingham Palace, while Henry Skuman, who tried to mess up during the swimming stage, has caught up to the Brownlee brothers."

"The leading group is heading towards Victoria Square."

Huang Kaiwen is still behind.

However, Victoria Square can already be seen in the distance.

At this time, Hailt approached again from the left, clearly speeding up, intending to surpass Huang Kaiwen.

Huang Kaiwen asked: "Buddy, which is heavier, 55 kg of iron or 55 kg of women?"

Hippel Hailt grinned: "Is this a trick question? I’m not falling for it, they’re obviously the same weight."

"No, because women underreport!"

Huang Kaiwen laughed heartily and immediately accelerated.

Hailt quickly followed suit.

The second group is accelerating at this time.

But Huang Kaiwen almost instantly left him behind, constantly overtaking competitors on the left side of the second group.

The second group will engage in a fierce competition at Victoria Square.

Huang Kaiwen didn’t want to duel with them.

Originally meant to sit on the seat, Huang Kaiwen chose the road bike riding style, standing up and pedaling hard, with the bike swaying left and right, seemingly ready to fall.

This posture actually scared the competitors around him.

Afraid that if Huang Kaiwen falls, they’ll all be taken down together.

[Cat Lovers] group.

"Whoa, Huang Kaiwen’s legs are really strong."

"Can’t you just ask Joe Hart? He can blow your mind with a kick."

"Such good legs not pedaling a trike is a waste."

"When Huang Kaiwen accelerates, everyone else does too."

"Normal, I don’t really follow triathlons. But in the Tour de France, it’s all about watching those ahead. In the past, organizations demanded competitors slow down to avoid doping suspicions, but Armstrong accelerated proactively, forcing everyone else to do the same, breaking the average speed record of that edition."

"Whoa, is Huang Kaiwen riding a motorbike, taking corners sideways."
