Hour Record Attempt
BRITONS! Forget the British Grand Prix and come to Palmer Park Velodrome in
Reading on July 20th. Not to watch the stick bike racing, though they tell me that this can be mildly entertaining, but rather to support Claire King in her attempt to set a British Record for the Standing Start Hour. Since there is no current British HPV Hour record, this in itself will not be so difficult, so she will be tilting firstly at Jeannie Longo-Ciprelli's 29.93 mile "aero" upright record and secondly at Chris Boardman's 30.73 mile run which constitutes the current record in the eyes of the UCI. Beating John Frey's 31.04 mile amateur aero bike record would be a nice bonus too... Claire will be riding Geoff Bird's HPV-Heaven streamliner, some details of which can be found he http://www.salmon7.fsnet.co.uk/t6bike.htm Let's just hope the weather decides to cooperate!

Hour Record Attempt
Subject to official confirmation, Claire covered 52.328 km / 32.522 miles.
We now have to persuade her that covering another ten miles in the hour should not be a problem Dave Larrington - http://www.legslarry.beerdrinkers.co.uk/ ================================================== ========= Editor - British Human Power Club Newsletter http://www.bhpc.org.uk/ ================================================== ========= |
