Thanks, mickster. I haven't been to a 6-day for years. It was great when they were at Wembley for a short time; I've also been to a Ghent 6 some years ago. I'll try to get to see some this year, as I think it's some of the most exciting bike racing there is.

Any news on whether there's any Brits riding any of the sixes this year? I saw Mark Cavendish and Rob Hayles at Gent last year; They took a beating but you could see Cavendish improve both tactically / strenghth-wise almost from session to session. I'm sure his 6 season helped set him up for his win in the scratch at the Commonwealths in March... Anyway, his move to T-Mobile will probably rule him out this year so just wondering if there were any other Brits lining up instead.

Isaac Galvez, World Champion, RIP. You were an amazing champion and you'll never be forgotten.
