I think the better lighting at this event has contributed to
the better looking shots. I could not believe how much light
was on the track for this event. Usually on this track I
would ride in clear lenses because yellows I found to be a
little on the dark side. (Note: CSV rules do not allow
riders to wear dark lenses on indoor tracks). On saturday
night when I was there I noticed that many riders were using
dark lenses (which must be allowed under UCI rules) so it
must have been pretty bright down at track level.
This venue costs a lot to hire so the local promoters,
Cyclists International, don't usually go for things like
turning the airconditioning on, or opening up the whole
stands on both sides for spectators unless there is demand.
It was good to see the VA showing off it's facilities to the
fullest during these Championships.
