We have written previously about Giuseppi Marinoni's planned Hour Record attempt at the Mattamy National Cycling Centre in Milton, on Saturday, August 19th [Here;]. There are still some tickets for the event - which is free, but you need to register.
There is also a bus charter coming down from Ottawa - reserve your spot Here. $40 for a same-day round trip ticket from Ottawa to the Milton Velodrome. Bus leaves August 19th at 6:30am from 490 Rochester Street and returns by midnight. Bus ticket includes a free ticket to witness the Record Attempt. Space limited to 54.
Tony Girardin, who is helping organize the event, was the film maker for Marinoni: The Fire in the Frame, and has announced that a special screening of the movie will be held the evening before the record attempt (Friday, August 18th at 7:00 pm), at the Milton Centre for the Arts (1010 Main Street E). The screening will be a tribute to Jocelyn Lovell, and he will be raffling off a Marinoni frame as part of the evening. Tickets for the event are $10, and there are still a few available.
