Alex Dowsett has announced the date of his attempt to beat the World Hour Record.

The British rider, who is with the Movistar team, will attempt the record in Manchester on May 2nd.

In a press release issued by Movistar, Dowsett said: “I’m thrilled to be back on track to attempt the Perfect Hour.

“Breaking my collarbone whilst in such good form was a real disappointment, but I healed 100% and didn’t lose much form through it all.

“Manchester will be a fantastic location and it’ll be an honour for me to attempt the record on the same boards as Chris Boardman.”

Ticket information and other details will be announced near the time.
