Anna Meares is one of the few shining lights out of Australia's performance at the track this Olympics. Clearly she was out classed by her opponent but still she did a sterling job to get through to the final. Apart from Cam Meyer's performance in the points race earlier in the week Anna's racing was a step up to the plate performance. Given that only a few short months ago she was potentially going to end up in a wheel chair.
As for the rest of the track team some need to be replaced and I am not going to name names but it is about time to cut some of the dead wood and open the doors for emerging talent cause some have been at the top too long. We have paid the consequence's of being complacent and relying on expectations from results of 4 years ago. Time to suck it up and come back to squash our enemies!
Time to look to our dirt track cousins on the BMX starting today and I cant wait to catch some of it and then we will have to wait for the MTB miracles to occur!
Later
