Sprinting back to the future

THE cream of homegrown cycling talent will compete at the Scottish National Track Championships in Glasgow next weekend as the first competitive event takes place at the new Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome.

Among the line-up will be newly-crowned British national sprint champion Callum Skinner, and John Paul, who was junior world sprint and double European junior champion in 2011. The pair are tipped by six-times Olympic champion Sir Chris Hoy as future stars and will be among Scotland's leading medal hopes at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
