And there we go, Hoy wins the Keirin - almost all others in the final crashing behind.
Very nasty injury for the Malaysian Awang, a splinter from the track went all the way through his leg.
What was the keirin I watched today with Nimke 15000 euros?
Thats the JKA Keirin (Japanese Keirin Association). Its always runs at the Manchester World Cup, alongside the actual World Cup keirin. Its separate from the World Cup though, with the prize being the money rather than World Cup points.

Do you think Hoy will be GBs sprinter for the Olympics? IMO he have not been that good at sprints lately (at least not at good as he used to be)
Hoy Keirin
Kenny Sprint
Kenny/Hoy/Crampton Team Sprint
The only real doubt I have on that selection is Crampton, but I dont think anyone better is going to come through
Yeh, the most likely change would be there, to allow Kenny and Hoy back to their preferred roles in Position 2 and 3 - its just a question of who. It would probably need to be a younger guy like Daniell or Mitchell, making a big breakthrough as Kenny did for Beijing
Wow Bauge is really 2 or maybe even 3 levels better than the rest. Dont think the british people is too happy with that no chance at all there for Kenny, but obv he can get better before the olympics.
