Editing Graeme Obree (section)

===Regaining the record===
Francesco Moser, whose record Obree had beaten, adopted Obree's riding position—adding a chest pad—and established not an outright world record but a veterans' record of 51.84&nbsp;kilometres.{{clarify|date=June 2016}} He did it on 15 January 1994, riding in the thin air of [[Mexico City]] as he had for his outright record, whereas Obree and Boardman had ridden at close to sea level.

Obree retook the record on 27 April 1994, using the track that Boardman had used at Bordeaux. He had bolted his shoes to his pedals, to avoid what had happened in the final of the national pursuit championship, when he pulled his foot off the pedal during his starting effort.<ref group="n">Bolting shoes to the pedals was pioneered by the Australian sprinter John Nicholson at the world championship in Leicester in 1970. Riders today use cleats on the soles of their shoes, which combined with specially designed pedals, make the accidental separation of the shoe from the pedal highly unlikely when the tension is properly adjusted.</ref>

He rode 52.713&nbsp;kilometres, a distance beaten on 2 September 1994 by the Spanish Tour de France winner, [[Miguel Induráin]].
