I had the pleasure of meeting Graeme once or twice when he was riding for the Leo RC/Shorter Rochford when i worked for Shorter Rochford. Very nice (misunderstood) guy. Some elements of the film were a shock to me too.
Dr Hutch is a very funny guy. Did anybody see last weeks CW?

A true low tech superstar, he even carbo loaded with marmalde sandwiches before a record attempt instead of the hitech sports nutrition foods other athletes used
The world needs more Graeme Obree's
It certainly does. He didn't like to warm up...Why knacker yourself before you start? He used to 'weight train' by riding up steep hills in a huge gear!

That's where the pics were taken
I walked around the new part and only realised there was more of it when coming out and exited via the main entrance :?
Didn't have time to go around that as I had a plane to catch to get home.
I'll have to go back up there again to finish off what I should've seen firstly last time.......
