is this for fun or intended as a good test to settle some arguements? if so should do a less technical course (flatter and faster) and propperly use the TT bike..35km/hr is quite a slow 10k TT or even for an hour!
You're right, a time trial bike (modern one) doesn't really shine until you reach faster speeds. The rider should be going at least 45km/h, perhaps 50 km/h.
I would like to see a track bike versus a time trial bike though, interested in seeing how direct drive makes a difference.
if he had been wearing the proper cleated shoes with the 1950's bike there wouldnt have been much difference.

I bet a 1930's recumbent bike would crush the 2009 bike.
