Someone asked me to get them a copy of this excellent book by Cyril Cartwright. Cyril was a world class track rider in the 40's and 50's until illness threatened to end his career. This is the account of how he restored himself to robust health by self treatment at home. Contains details of his racing results, training methods and diet. In 1952 partnered by Don Burgess he did a 50K Maidison in 1 hour 17 seconds. A speed of over 31 m.p.h. Or over 112 pedal revs per minute on a 92"gear. And these were the days of all steel track irons. Whoever you were please contact off list, I have managed to locate a copy.

Best wishes and be lucky. Michael Butler Huntingdon UK.
