I'm curious to know what they're going to do with Track Cycling.

Maybe they will axe another endurance event and replace it with Flying Lap.  

 

Yep, Omnium is actually too exciting because it has points race. Needs to be kicked out immediately.

 

Ah, I wish I followed track cycling back in 2008, the last time we had real good events there...
