Miguel Indurain will make his bid to break the Scot Graeme Obree's world hour record in Bordeaux next Friday, the Spaniard's sporting director Eusebio Unzue said yesterday. Indurain, who won his fourth Tour de France last month, is training in the Basque country and will head for the French velodrome early next week. Obree set his mark in Bordeaux last April at 52.713km. The Italian Gianni Bugno, the winner of two world championship road races who failed a dope test for caffeine, said yesterday that he will quit racing if he fails a second test and is suspended.
