Report & Results – Good Friday Track Open
(3rd April 2015), The Good Friday Meeting saw another action-packed day’s track racing at Lee Valley VeloPark, with Germany’s Leif Lampater, taking three races, including the main prize, The Golden Wheel.
With a history going back over 100 years, the Good Friday Meeting is a unique combination of elite, professional and club-level riders from across the globe, as well as national and local talent, seeing World and Olympic champions taking on amateurs at the Olympic venue.
Lampater, the two-time Madison World Cup winner, also took the Elite Derny Paced Race and the Super Points Race, with teammate Christian Grasmann taking second, and GB and Team Wiggo’s Andy Tennant in third. There were two wins for Sophie Black in the Women’s Points and Scratch races, with Joanna Smith taking the Women’s Elimination Race.
Two-time Olympic Gold medalist and ambassador for The Good Friday Meeting, Ed Clancy who took first place in the Super Elimination and second in the Golden Wheel, said: “I was happy to come away with a win today, it was a great atmosphere with some tough competition. I always enjoy racing at the Good Friday Meeting and I’m looking forward to coming back here next year.â€
