VEL-O-DROME

I went to the Six Day at the Olympic Velodrome this week. Great atmosphere, lots of fun.

They've gone full Wipeout with it all. A DJ from Ministry of Sound watching the action and keeping tempo accordingly. Coloured flood lighting. Introducing all the riders one by one as they do laps. Very little hanging around between events, and you mostly knew what was going on.

And whoever had the Derny riders come out to Ride of the Valkyries deserves a bonus.
