On Saturday, August 31, a real world record holder was with us: Nicola Walde from Weil. She was the first woman in the world to cover 1,173 kilometers in 24 hours - and she did it with pure muscle power. The woman from Weil has already set several world records, the last one in July 2022.

Now the 50-year-old has broken it on our test track: 24 hours in a velomobile - a three-wheeled recumbent bike made of carbon and nylon. At the same time, a ¼-mile race took place on the neighboring FTL film highway. However, muscle power was required at the test site in Aldenhoven.

As a test center especially for SMEs and start-ups, we are always happy when our customers not only test with us, but also book our site for such occasions. Our experienced team will be happy to advise you.
