Revolution 14 exclusive post-event photographs!


We were on duty, but got intimidated by all the schmoozing going on and didn't feel like doing the journalist thing. The wristband was altered accordingly.



As a result of our reluctance to be proper journalists, we thought we'd hang around indefinitely after it finished and bring you some exciting pictures that no other website would have. Does Cycling Weekly demonstrate this level of dedication to its readers?



It seemed like it'd be quite funny to do this, but in hindsight we should've just taken some pictures of Gilberto Simoni.



Did you see us walking around? We were carrying a disgusting coloured messenger bag with "My Other Car is a Pynchon Novel" written on it. If anyone asked about it, we explained ourselves as being a website that purveys the finest "pseudo-intellectual cyclo-babble".



We took this photo in anticipation of trying to think of a rubbish joke about vans being allowed to drive clockwise around the track. But it turned out that the vans were the bane of our existence.



We were still in the velodrome at noon the following day. This is why you shouldn't accept lifts from people.


Only three weeks to Revolution 15
To celebrate, we're going to try and milk the track racing related updates for the entire three week period. It's going to test both yours and our patience, but we'll get through it together.


Some old updates that aren't entirely awful


And there'll be even more coming to this spot just as soon as we can be bothered trawling through our somewhat embarrassing archives.

Simon and Anthony


Nigel and company


Johnathan & friends, even though they're always last with the news and the website is horrible


Dutch cyclists we like because they're better/more attractive than British riders

Bobke Strut is so good that it deserves a category of its own

Arrr, bike pirates

George!

Things we hate so much we're not even going to link to them

  • Trust But Verify
  • Trek
  • Assos

Our e-mail inbox isn't just for Japanese gambling promotions and the latest advances in penis enlargement chemistry, you know

What's the word "derailed" got to do with bikes anyway?

  • Err... bikes have things called derailleurs? Apart from track bikes, which don't.

If derailleurs evolved from fixies, how come there are still fixies?

  • Survival of the fixest.
