It has been an excellent weekend of racing with some spectacular crashes including Jason Kenny's gold-winning slide across the finish line in the sprint with Shane Perkins & another crash in the Madison, but that's the life of a cyclist!
In terms of more autographs for me, I managed to obtain Ed Clancy and Geraint Thomas's, although there isn't a picture of me with them as I let Paul stay to take pictures of the racing rather than tag along with me to the area where the guys were.
