Tummy of love at the Manchester Velodrome

I can't resist mentioning the GB cycling team who this morning have had a storming day at the Olympic Velodrome.
Wiggly Braggins was fastest in the men's pursuit qualifying with a new Olympic record with Steve Burke in 5th!!!!!! I remember Steve coming to my sprint sessions at the Manchester Velodrome just a few years ago - along with new Olympic Team Sprint champion Jason Kenny. Jason rode a stormer with Chris Hoy and Jamie Staff setting a new olympic record in the qualifying round and survived the scare in the final to beat the French.
Then along come Wendy Houvenghel and qualifies fastest in the qualifying round of the women's prusuit in front of GB's Rebecca Romero. Not bad for a evenings work. See mere details here
and here .
Watch out for the finals of the pursuits, Hoy and Ross Edgar in the keirin, Hoy and Kenny in the sprint plus the team pursuit team - who are flying apparently.
