Under 700 meters is still considered low-altitude

I need to thank the organizers of the Dekra event truly with all my heart. There was a lot of good will to make the event as racer's friendly as possible. I could choose the lane that would be measured and choose any time to attempt for 1-h during two days. Additionally, I got opportunity to make 200 meters world record on Friday evening, what wasn't planned before and Sunday morning slow riding for taking pictures and videos. The weather really cooperated, the terrain was familiar, what made this event optimistic and relaxing. Not to mention that there was no entry fees, thanks to Dekra and HPV Germany! Special thanks to the Dekra track employees (Uwe, Peter and others), Christian Ascheberg, Martin Exeler and his wife. I discovered Dekra perfect track last year and I hope we can continue our racing tradition there.
Sincerely, Damjan

Also, aren't the two wheelers and trikes/multitrack being recorded separately now by the IHPVA/WHPVA/SHPVA/GHPVA/UHPVA?

Hi Jeff,
Until an official observers report is submitted to the IHPVA records committee for approval, Christian's record and the others are still "unofficial". Obviously the 1069 km in 24 hours could later be shown to be the record. However no paperwork in the form of an Observers Report with lap counts, timer certification, course survey etc, witnessed by IHPVA observers was submitted to the IHPVA. Neither do i know if a report was forwarded to the WHPVA

The current recognized IHPVA mark is 1041.25 km in 24 hours set by Greg Kolodziejzyk in the vehicle, Critical Power, 17-Jul-06.
During the same run, he tranversed 1000 km in 23:02:00.

I am a big fan of this sport, and records. All records should be recognized, and I would hope that various divisions around the world would share the details of their attempts with the IHPVA records committee. The IHPVA has recognized records since the modern day human powered speed championships starting in 1975.
