Rohan Dennis of BMC is hoping that his hour Record will remain standing with upcoming attempts from British duo Alex Dowsett and Bradley Wiggins.

"I hope he doesn't break the record," Dennis said to Cyclingnews of Dowsett’s attempt this weekend. "It does feel like along time ago. It did come and go very quickly and I didn't take it in like I should have; but I will take it in later on in my career or later this year when I have a bit of a down period."

"He is obviously a good time trialler," Dennis said of Dowsett's threat. "He beat me at the Commonwealth Games last year and he is always around the mark as well.”

While he is hopeful Dowsett doesn’t beat the mark of 52.491km, Dennis is almost 100% sure that Wiggins will beat his mark.

"(I’m) 99 per cent sure he is probably going to beat my record. He is much older. He is a much, much more experienced better time triallist than me at the moment over a longer distance. It is a matter of: will he break 53 kilometres; and if he does, by how much? I don't think he is going to get 54 or 55.”

"People throw stupid numbers like that out there because they believe … Correct me if I am wrong once he has done it, but I have huge doubts he is going to crack 54 or 55. That's sort of super human stuff. The numbers [for Dennis] were as good as what I thought. But I don't think physically you can do a whole lot more in the sense that if you want to do the 54 or 55 it's going to [require] pretty stupid numbers for an hour. And no amount of track experience or maturity, I don't think, can do it in this position."
