And congratulations to everyone who took part - your performance both on and off the track was exemplary.
Thanks also to the parents and coaches that made the evening happen - without you this event could not take place and we encourage you all to learn new jobs on the track side. Good to see so many parents in the stands also cheering on the kids!!
The next event in the series is on Friday 20 July when the kids will race the other three events of the Olympic omnium. Watch the Cycling Southland website and Facebook for details nearer the time.
