American Velodrome Challenge Predictions

Predictions:

John Peckham Elite Points Race - One of the fastest races in the history of Hellyer, Holloway, Ben Jacques-Maynes and Ben Barsi-Rhyne trade pulls throughout the race. In the end, with a powerful sprint, Holloway nips Ben Jacques-Maynes for $1k and spends it on his girlfriend the next day. His dad is upset.

Men's Sprints - Duvendeck and Massie could only get 10.9 thus allowing Jeff Solt's record to remain for one more year. 11.5 gets you in the show creating for some thrilling match sprints. Montano Velo sprinters Giovanni Rey and Matias Elgart finish in top 4. Duvendeck fails to finish a match sprint when Travis tells him there's a new batch of Testarossa winery coming in over at the Beer Garden. Massie wins.

Men's Keirin - The most exciting race of the weekend. Duvendeck and Massie put on their 100 inches gear and try to power away from the rest of the field. Kelyn Akuna surprises the field to win the overall honors to draw the biggest cheer from the crowd. Kelyn's so thrilled he sprays the Mike's Hard Lemonade, making everything so sticky.

Men's Madison - Jacques-Maynes and Zwizanski trade pulls in a fast Madison race ever, lapping the field several times. Ben Jacques-Maynes, a perfect guy for a sponsor, keeps saying vacuuming several times "We just vacuumed the field throughout the night and it was easy to clean up the mess".
