Indeed! It was fast too. Got Boardman a world title or two didn't it?

 

Edit: It did! An Olympic gold and World Hour Record.

We can't mention the hour record, weird bikes and Boardman without mentioning Gaeme Obree and "old faithful". It's not THAT weird a bike, more the way he rode it. But hey, he broke a 9 year old 1 hour record, then lost it, regained it and then lost it again to Boardman (I think). Then they banned his bike. Maybe not all in that order.

Have you seen the movie "The flying scotsman"? If not, it's a good watch.
