Lance Armstrong issued a time trial challenge to Ironman triathlete Chris Lieto, and they duked it out on the Queen Kamehameha highway in Hawaii. Watch the video, and here’s the answer to the question we know you’ll have: 56km/h = 34.8mph.
Here’s the Twitter smack talk recap:
ARMSTRONG: Just passed @chrislieto going the other way. He was hammerin. Hey Chris, a little TT showdown on the Queen K tomorrow? You, me, and whoever.
LIETO: @lancearmstrong see u on the Queen-K! Will have to be after 8am cause I have to swim first. Flying out mid day. Give me a call.
LIETO: Swim at A Bay at 7am. See u there
ARMSTRONG: @chrislieto now that would require clearance from @johanbruyneel which I know we won’t get!
ARMSTRONG: Start times 4today. @lancearmstrong @ 9:30, @chrislieto @ 9:31. Others every min. Honor system! No starting ur clock late/stopping it early!
LIETO: Official time for @chrislieto is 18:44. Thanks @lancearmstrong (think his time was 18:35) for a great TT.
