Day 7 - Cycling

After a late night drinking followed by a nice bottle of Prosecco when we got home to toast our medal success we managed to get to the Velodrome for a 10 o clock start.

We saw two events - the men's omnium pursuit and the women's sprint qualifying.

The omnium was pretty good and Ed Clancy did a good job to get second (he ended up with a bronze). The main event though was sprint qualifying. Everyone's favourite cyclist Victoria Pendleton stormed round in an Olympic record time which was greeted by a roar which was very goose-bump inducing.

After that we went home for a well deserved sit down.
