Can't find a video of this: http://www.britishcycling.org.uk/web/MultimediaFiles/20090221_REVOLUTION24_13.JPG
It was the 1km madison at Revolution 24 - Kenny and Daniell were on course for the record until they messed up the handover.

Why is it that most of the videos are of crashes? Doesn't bode well....

Am I missing summat, or are you confusing pista and piste?

I've been on indoor veldromes for 6 hours, and outdoor veldromes for probably 10+ hours, and have never fallen off Trust me, you'll be fine

 

[Will1985]

It's not me I'm worried about!

I've had enough time on outdoor tracks and fixed before....cars are my only problem

 

[Young Un]

Haha, it's others that worry me aswell, but anyway I'm going to stop thinking about crashes because it will most likely make me have one tonight or tomorrow!

I'd finished a taster and was watching a training session @ Manchester when someone just completely ...stopped... going into the banking at the top of the track. Trackstands don't work so well on 43 degree banking. He fell over & slid all down the track onto the concrete, bringing down another 3-4 riders, my word didn't the coach scream at him!
