No-one can deny that cycling is getting faster every year. The average speeds in the Tour de France are faster than ever (if you exclude a period in the 90s and early 2000s), world records are broken in almost every track race, but are humans actually getting fitter and stronger? We'd love to know your opinion on whether humans are getting stronger, or we're only getting faster because of new tech?
