I got 4th in the Smithfield Nocturne folding bike race. A good improvement on last years performance. I took the lead at about 250m to go which was exactly where I wanted to go but just but didn't have a big enough sprint to get on the podium. http://www.540network.com/ww/00701/c...508_large.html
Great atmosphere, big crowds - many of them banging the boards or rattling cowbells to make a massive noise for us.

This year it was being filmed for Sky sports and will be shown on Friday, repeated Saturday. They had a motorbike camera filming us as we raced - I hope they show some of that footage.

Main programme: Friday 17th June, 19:00, Sky Sports 2
Repeats: Saturday 18th June, 01:30, Sky Sports 1 and 08:00, Sky Sports 3
