Last day and its all over at the worlds.
Qualified second in my heat for the final in the points race, which maybe suggests that I did more work than I needed to.
Points final was really fast, I got off the front once for a lap or so but lots of fast guys in the pack. Struggled in the pack for a bit and then just the same as nationals I puntured up the top of the banking. Fortunately just like nationals I managed to bring the bike down the track and was caught before I brought myself or someone else down, ( I lock myself into the pedals).
Back into the race my replacement wheel had a smaller back cog so I was undergeared and staying in the pack was basically my best result (apart from staying upright) I missed a crash and that was the race.
All a bit disappointing really
Just before I send this off I note that the Russian who went down in our race pile up, limped past, he looks in a bad way. Also earlier on British legend and smoker Dave Legrys was carried out of the velodrome on a strecher not to be seen again, after his races pile up, so I suppose it could be worse.
