    Most aggressive rider as well...
    And scored a good pro contract for next year as well (no-one ever deserved it more)

    I was there to watch it... fair play didn't think he'd manage a good sprint after the sheer number of attacks he was in. Great ride by him!

    After having a couple of training sessions, watching such high calibre racing and having my first track league event coming soon I have to say Ireland needs a velodrome...

    Good for him. Delighted that his hard work is paying off. Maybe now he might leaves the swords league alone for the mere mortals!

    Great racing again tonight. Spanish rider was just too strong for Martyn. I felt sorry for Caroline Ryan she was starting at the back of the elimination and had just got herself in a good position when a crash meant the race was restarted. So she got put back to the back and never really recovered her good position. Laura Trott is a class apart in the elimination though
