Men's Team Pursuit
Courteousy of British Cycling and Larry Hickmott
It
was gold for the Recycling quartet of Clancy, Thomas, Manning & Newton
in the Team Pursuit. They qualified fastest in 4:05.911 and went even
faster in beating Russia in the final, where they recorded a stunning
4:03.275. It was a very competitive event with no less than six teams
going under 4 minutes 10 seconds, including the youngish (sorry Rob!)
GB quartet of Cavendish, Hayles, Sander and Tennant, who finished fifth
overall.
