Double gold for Handsling rider at British Track Nationals

There's no question about who stole the show at the weekend's British National Track Championships. 

A-level student Sam Fisher won an astonishing two senior gold medals on the closing day in Manchester, both on his Handsling TR3evo.

The 17-year-old, who was making his senior debut, started the day as part of the Wales Racing Academy quartet that won gold in the Team Pursuit. They beat more experienced opposition, taking the win with a time of 4:01.548.

Just hours later he was back on the top step of the podium, this time to collect a gold medal for the Scratch Race. He blasted clear with a lap to go to round off an unforgettable day. The outpouring of emotion at the line was clear to see, especially as he'd been feeling ill in the run up to the event. 

Other standout results for Handsling TR3evo riders included a silver medal in the Individual Pursuit for Handsling-sponsored paracyclist Amelia Cass (below).
