In cycling news, New Zealander Simon Van Velthooven won the gold medal in the keirin event at the world track cycling championships held in Beijing.
With cycling booming in New Zealand recently, the government announced it is to set up a high performance centre to boost Kiwi riders. The center will accommodate all disciplines - road, track, BMX and mountain bike - but track will be the main focus, with a world-class velodrome to be built.
What with the New Zealand Cycleway project gaining steam, the country is sure to become a cycling mecca in the not-too-distant future.
How about flying with the kiwis?
