Haddington Cycle Club are very pleased to announce 'An Evening With Graeme Obree' on Thursday 23rd March at 7:30pm in the Haddington Townhouse.
Tickets will go on sale on 21st February and will cost £10.
Graeme Obree, nicknamed The Flying Scotsman, twice broke the world hour record, in July 1993 and April 1994, and was the individual pursuit world champion in 1993 and 1995. He was known for his unusual riding positions and for the Old Faithful bicycle he built which included parts from a washing machine.
His life and exploits have been dramatised in the 2006 film The Flying Scotsman and more recently in the documentary film Battle Mountain: Graeme Obree's Story, which follows his journey to Battle Mountain, Nevada to compete in the 2013 World Human Powered Speed Championships.
Graeme will be talking about his life in cycling, his approach to training as well as his past and current world record attempts.
