LONDON (Reuters) - British cyclist Joss Lowden will fix her eyes on the black line in a Swiss velodrome on Thursday and prepare to ride through the pain barrier in pursuit of the women's Hour world record.
The 33-year-old's audacious attempt to break Italian Vittoria Bussi's current record of 48.007km set at altitude in Mexico in 2018 will require Lowden to complete a minimum of 192 laps of the track in Grenchen near Bern.
