Track Speed Record Smashed - Twice

The long standing flying lap speed record of 8.17 seconds was smashed - twice - at the Forest City Velodrome last night.

Gordon Singleton riding his last tuneup before heading for the World Masters Championship at Manchester England clocked an 8.16 to beat the record by 1/100th.

Just as the excitement started to settle Jamie Shankland stepped up and clocked an 8.06 to beat Singletons new record by 10/100ths of a second. Shankland leaves for the Canadian Senior Championship on September 6.
Other top winners for the night were:
Ryan Crawford in the sprint tournament
Stephen Meyer and Dave Byer in the team madison event
Eric Robertson in the Miss and Out elimination race
Ryan Lave with 2 wins in the Velo-kids category
Simon Dearing, Vince DeJong, Gord Singleton and Jamie Shankland winners in the scratch race events.

Racing continues September 16 at 7pm
