Ollie's hour record is fast approaching, but with limited time on the track, he's going to need to learn some skills fast. Fortunately, a world-class track rider has just joined our team at GCN in the form of Manon Lloyd. With Manon's guidance and expert coaching from The Sufferfest, what could possibly get in the way of Ollie riding past Eddie Merckx's historic record?
