Track cycling
We watched track cycling this afternoon. Strange sport in some respects.
The speeds those track cyclists reach are amazing, especially considering they're on the flats. The teams of four typically covered 4 km in just over 4 minutes. In one race a guy managed to average over 71 kph (44 mph) for a one lap sprint. I need a good downhill slope to achieve that as my max speed.
