 Hi everyone, I'm Giddy and Massey at the Encino Velodrome here in Southern California. Today, Pure Fix Team is going to show us two of the most popular events for sprinters on the track. Track-Like Racing is one of the most exciting sporting events and it's something that everyone can do with a little bit of instruction. In a flying lap, each racer has one chance to ride their fastest lap possible. Angel, you ready? You guys ready? Alright, come on, let's do this. Show us what you got. The flying lap begins with a wind-up. The racer builds speed at the top of the track. That's good. A little bit higher on the track. His time will start when he crosses the starting line and he'll want to be going as fast as possible when he reaches the line. He'll dive down the track and build the max speed. Alright, come on, hard as you can, hard as you can. Come on, go, go, go. You've got to stay low on the track. You've got to lay it all out here, 100% intensity. He's following a black line because that's the shortest distance around the track. You have to dig deep when you come around the last turn and really push to the finish. Keep your head up. Come on, up, up, up. Great. And that's how you do a flying lap. Great work today, guys. You guys are looking really good, really tight professional. One piece of advice I would say is when you're driving up the top of the track along the transition, make sure you stay in the saddle and keep driving really hard. As you come down the banking, you're standing up out of the saddle going as hard as you can. When you sit again, sit smoothly in the saddle. Don't just plop and stay low. Keep your profile low. That's going to help you accelerate through the turn and just have a blazing flying lap. Match sprinting is a one-on-one race that takes a lot of skill and strategy. These guys are going to show you how it's done. All right, are you guys ready? Let's see what you got. Come on. Both racers started the line and raised three laps around the track. You might be wondering, why are they going so slow at first? This is because position is everything in a match sprint. They're slowing way down on the track. A lot of skill, a lot of skill required for this. They might even come to a standstill. Look how slow they're going. The rider behind actually has a better position and can draft off the rider in front of him and easily beat him in the end. That's why the rider in front has to be so careful, watching his opponent and even trying to trick him into taking the lead position by stopping and balancing on the track. Just like that, they come to a complete stop. This is called a track stand. When one of the racers makes a move, they immediately accelerate to speeds of over 40 miles per hour. And there he goes. He's taken off. He's going as hard as he can for 100% effort here. It's all out sprint to the finish line. The rider's in the draft from behind. He's trying to come around him at the end. I don't know if he's going to get there. Come on, guys. Come on all the way to the line, all the way. Go, go, go. And that's how you do a match sprint. Okay. We just finished the match sprint. You guys are looking sharp out there. Remember, once you get on that track, focus 100% focus. The rider in the front, it's your job to be watching the guy behind you. Any little movement, you should be picking up on that. The guy in the back, maintain that distance. Don't sit right on the wheel. Never sit right on the wheel. Keep a little gap. You can always accelerate into the draft and come around him at the end. Those are just two of the many races that take place on the Velodrome.
