Can anyone out there help me find information (articles photos..) on Anquetil's first hour record attempt on a Helyett chromed bike.

I just have this photo of the bike (miscaptionned)

http://www.vigorelli.org/storia/stcmpingr03.html

This bike had very special proportions (very low BB) that weren't adapted to the banked Vigorelli track, but Anquetil still beat the 1/2 hour record. He then had a frame more adapted to the track built by Masi in a few days and beat the hour record.

So I'm looking for any other photos of the first attempt, before Anquetil switched bikes.
