Sprinters now have nothing apart from the sprint and keirin, two very similar events,

Two different nights, two different events. You can never make up for things, but tonight was special. You have the lows, and it puts everything in perspective, but if you win all the time it begins to get boring . . .

Cycling has brought me a lot of pleasure and, being a Scot, I know how lucky we are to have beautiful scenery and quiet roads to enjoy by bike.

We'll go from best mates to rivals, which can be a bit odd.

The work's done, you turn up on the night and do your best - I'm as well prepared if not better prepared than I was before the Athens Olympics.

We're expecting to go home with some medals.
