Thanks to you both!

Really happy with how so many of my photos have come out from the weekend.

I have some more added on to Flickr now from the Keirin – showing the story of the final, in pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sumofmarc/sets/72157629393621897/with/6908740915/

Really like

the one with the celebration. First thought, what a pity he obscured the view, but I like the emotion of that clenched fist, and seeing the GB coach doing the same in the infield.

Yeh, the fist was initially annoying

But it could have been worse, since Hoy is mostly in view, and it does give a bit of an impression about how mental the Velodrome went every time a British rider went well!

Though i think it’s actually the German coach on the infield.

very nice.

any women’s IP pics?

"Ants don’t worry, they operate like a fantastic team, they accept obstacles and deal with them in a positive manner, they don’t complain and remain positive. An ant doesn’t work on emotion, is proactive and always chooses the ant role."

Since you asked

Ill have a look through that event now!

A sensible place to start anyway, the Qualifying was the first event I saw on Saturday

Thanks again to all of you

I have so many photos to upload. Hopefully it will mean that whenever anyone wants to write something about Track Cycling on here, they won’t be short of possible photos!

yay!

And I can’t wait for your fanpost (no pressure, hahaha!)

Aka Pigeons!

Im working on it!

But until then, hows 90 photos from the Womens sprint? http://www.flickr.com/photos/sumofmarc/sets/72157629419642709/

Some other photos have been added, easily found from my collection page for the event: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sumofmarc/collections/72157629401109801/
Including: Relegation of Vogel in Womens Keirin, Bauge vs Kenny in the 5th-8th place ride off after the Rainbow jersey switched hands recently, and a couple of Mens Team Pursuit practice shots Im particularly pleased with.
