    Well this is proving to be overwhelmingly unpopular, lol.

    I've done 42 of these runs myself.

    Oh well, as long as no one else has a go I guess that makes me number one in the world!

    Don't worry, I tried to start a Dual-Hand 90s Endurance league, and that only had around 4 participants.

    I've got a free day tomorrow so I might see what I can do to get the #1 spot myself!

    Once I get my right hand back in option I'll give this a go.

    Finally got round to an hour with the Metal today. Started a bit slow really, doing 165,000 in the first 20 minutes. 246,500 by half an hour. Upped the pace a bit doing 248,600 in the final 30 minutes, which is going to be my 30-minute record, and 166,000 in the final 20 minutes...now my 20-minute record. (I think in the last ten minutes I was going my fastest!)

    Total revs in one hour was 495,100. 8251.66 rpm average. About 30 seconds per hand I guess.

    Quite a few blisters now.

    Hey Tim,

    Well done on that, great score

    Shame you didn't quite make the 500,000 revs but you're a hell of a lot closer than I am, the one time I tried 30sec/hand I blistered pretty badly and my speed soon dropped off.

    Once you're recovered I'd love to see what you could do at five minutes per hand.

    loligo,

    If you regularly do a one hour session with the metal powerball it would be interesting if you could run it rev counting mode just to see how many you do.

    Who's next to post a score?

    --Barry.
