    Graeme is planning a practise run at the Manchester
    Velodrome on Sunday April 4th (in the evening). He reckons
    if he can average 48 or 49kph for 40 minutes he will make a
    full attempt within 6 weeks. He aims to use 60x12 gearing.

    Obree appears to be in good form, 3 weeks ago he clocked a
    21-14 for a 10 while shod in warm training clothing.

    If he makes the full attempt I would definitely like to be
    there to help shout him on. I think the chances of his
    succeeding are remote, but what a thing to be there if he
    pulls it off. URC expedition?
