Chris Hoy, Philip Hindes and Jason Kenny won the three-lap Team Sprint in a world record of 42.60 seconds. Chris competing in his fourth Games has now drawn level with Steve Redgrave with five Olympic Gold medals (and one more to come hopefully). This was Great Britain's 5th Gold of London 2012.
Part One: This was the low point and our experiences of Edinburgh were annoying and upsetting. Firstly, it was raining. Parking was terrible but I suppose you expect that in a big city. Disabled access was an absolute joke. They have the obligatory little ramps to get you off the pavement to help you cross the road. But these were dangerous and I had a frightening moment when I nearly pitched out of my chair and could have hurt myself if Lubs hadn't managed to grab me. There was a distinct lack of signs so we spent a frustrating and tiring time trying to get our bearings, all the while trying to get through crowds of the ignorant and unhelpful. Frankly, I don't know how we're managing to smile in these pictures.
