Men’s sprint final at the 2004 Athens Olympics
Date: July 30, 2014 / Posted by Glenn Mitchell
The men’s sprint is the blue riband event at the Olympic velodrome . Up until 2004 Australia had never succeeded in winning gold. That all changed however when West Australian Ryan Bayley overcame Dutch world champion Theo Bos in the third and deciding race of the final.

I am 56 years of age and never had to endure the horrors of war ... never experience the trenches & the fear ... never saw mates cut down ... some had no choice ... they deserve nothing but respect and to have their memories honoured. Lest We Forget. #ANZACDay
