- In Barcelona, 29th July, 1992, Chris Boardman, riding the revolutionary
- LotusSports superbike, made history by winning Great Britain's first Olympic
- cycling gold medal for 72 years. Full details are given in the file "ARTICLE"
- - a press report published in Cycling Weekly, 8th August, 1992....I hope they
- don't mind me repeating it. ß^D

- During July/August of 1992 ALL our competing athletes were a credit to
- the nation and I would like to dedicate this disk to everyone - not just the
- medal winners. Yes, I know that it's the taking part that's important. But
- when you do win you deserve some recognition, and so here's the role of
- honour.......

- AND NOW FOR THE COMPUTER STUFF!
-
- The background music is "Arpegiator" (© Jean-Michel Jarre/Francis Dreyfus
- Music) sequenced, as always, using NoiseTracker v2.0. I've deliberately kept
- the animation & music independant.....so from WorkBench the choice is yours
- (This disk is also bootable - but then I'M in charge, ha, ha!).
-
- From WorkBench the animation will play for four minutes and eleven
- seconds - approximately the length of the real life final!!
-
