Up-and-coming sprinter Ross Edgar makes Jon Norfolk grimace in the sprint
Girls are made of sugar and spice and all things nice.... but if you look carefully at the right moment in a bike race, you can sometimes see a hint of steel determination, too!
Experienced Belgian six-day pro Matt Gilmore (top) was paired with up-and-coming Belgian track star Iljo Keisse (bottom).
In the final of the sprint series, Matt Haynes makes Ross Edgar work hard to get round him. But Edgar is a wily sprinter, and found a way round to win the sprint crown.
Nicole Cooke put in a welcome return to the track during the Revolution 6 track meeting.
Rachel Heal in orange, and Vicky Pendleton in Persil colours sandwich an almost-hidden Nicole Cooke (in yellow) during the elite women's 30 lap points race.
Emma Davies, recently signed to a Belgian professional team powers over another rider at Revolution Six.
Craig MacLean and a martian , um, I mean, Chris Hoy in an aero helmet.
The Revolution series mixes events for established track stars with races for younger riders. Here the future stars head for the line in the last lap of a race.
If you are going to fall off in a race try not to do it in front of a photographer.
Chris Hoy shows he is a true professional and manages to flash a happy smile for the camera.
Alexander Aeschbach chucks his regular six-day partner Franco Marvulli into the fray during the Madison in Manchester. Aeschbach is still bandaged and heavily bruised after a nasty crash during the Ghent Six.
Magnus Backstedt gives Jimmi Madsen a big, powerful handsling during the Revolution Madison event. You know when you are on a plane, and the pilot winds up the engine then lets the brakes off at the start of the runway? When the plane surges forward? That gives some idea of what a Madison handsling from Backstedt must feel like.
Danny Stam throws partner Robert Slippens into the Madison action in Manchester. The in-form Dutch pair went on to win the race.
