The racing was fast and the crowds were huge!  Hundreds of spectators came both evenings to watch champion riders compete in a full host of competitiver events, including the Keirin, Miss n Out, Match Sprints, Points races, Scratch Races, and even the Kiddie Kilo.   The mens field even filled to capacity, making for some of the fastest racing we can remember in a long time!
