There was no infield bar! I want my money back! sorry to the people i kept squeezing past with cups of beer.
But seriously a great night of racing. Aus team pursuit final was fantastic (that guy will go even faster without that haircut). How about that big german bloke winding up the pace.
Another great night of racing, incredible effort by the Ukrainian team in the Madison to take a lap early on, but a stellar win from the Kiwis (Cam/Stu, you would have lost your shit if you were there.)
Perko & Anna made it look easy in the Match Sprint and the Keirin.
Wicked ride home in the rain, in the drops spinning all the way up Nicholson, smashing through the puddles. Even with full fenders my shoes, jacket, etc are completely saturated.
Perkins’ move on Sireau in the sprint final was awesome finish to the night. Anna Mears setting the fastest ever 500m time in Australia was also a ripper. Then she smoked the field in the keirin.
20 km ride home in the rain was mental.
the rain made me late and i missed the madison (bummed) but definitely saw some great racing. yeahhhhh
i think i had more fun on the ride home in that rain!!! plus it’s not every day you have the whole (3-4 lanes) of footscray road to yourself (plus the other two guys who were also riding back from the racing)
Taped and just watched the coverage from Fox. Gees you guys in Melbourne know how to put on a big crowd. Last few times i’ve been to Dunc Grey you could count the spectators on one hand.
