If you were inspired by Graeme Obree’s book or the film ‘The Flying Scotsman’ you may be interested in Graeme’s new blog. Graeme Obree.blogspot – ‘My Words’ I would be interested to hear Graeme’s ideas on cycling and life and hope he has time to maintain a blog. As I mentioned in a comment to his recent post, I think the fact that Obree was never part of the ‘cycling establishment’ makes his world hour record even more special. It is one of the great stories of cycling.
Also Graeme made a good point about Yvonne McGregor’s World Hour record on 1995 June 17. – To break the world hour record is one of the pinnacles of achievement in cycling.
