The Hour Record Attempt is fast approaching!

Giuseppe Marinoni has arrived to Milton, and he's itching to take to the track to attempt the World Hour Record in the 80-84 age category, this Saturday, August 19th at 3:00 pm. Here's some key information about this weekend:

Tribute to JOCELYN LOVELL Screening of 'Marinoni'
Join us on Friday, August 18th, at 7:00 pm at the Milton Centre for the Arts for a night to remember Jocelyn Lovell. There will be an art exhibit before the film so come early; a Q&A with the filmmaker after the film and a Marinoni frame raffle! The film is presented by the Flying Monkey Bike Shop. Tickets available HERE.

Lastly, we encourage you to bring lots of cheer! Make a sign or bring whatever you can to make some noise and let Giuseppe know that you'll be supporting him for an entire hour! He'll need everything he's got and all the support you can give if he's to have a crack at the daunting World Hour Record!

See you tonight and/or tomorrow!
