I watched Peter Holly's run from the back straight and he was dead-set flying for 150m. Then it was almost like he was doing a madison throw as the wind stole his legspeed with every pedal stroke. I couldn't believe how much impact it had on a big strong bloke like him.
Yep, I saw Holly flying and get a slow time, then Jeff came thru lookin avg and destroyed my time by close to a second !!!

Holly was spinning out his gear he reckoned, but on the 2 lap hcap when he gave me the lead out, I was waiting on him to get going, could have gone past him in the first couple of pedal strokes...strange!
u up for a training session tonight? track that is, not at the elli!
