Cyclist Victoria Pendleton achieved her second victory in two days yesterday when she came first in the 200m time-trial at the British National Track Championships in Manchester.

Wearing her red, white and blue women's fitness wear the cyclist continued her impressive start to the season winning her eighth consecutive national sprint title.

Her closest challengers in the race were teenagers Jess Varnish and Becky James.

Ms Pendleton told Sky Sports: "I'm really pleased with my form, it's probably the fastest I've been going at this time of year. I've never gone into a World Cup with this much speed."

The 29-year-old said she started cycling about the same time that she started to walk.

She currently lives and trains, in her women's fitness wear, in Manchester with the rest of the elite Great Britain Track Team and, so far this year, has won a number of competitions and titles including Sprint World Champion in Pruszkow. ADNFCR-2569-ID-19422710-ADNFCR
