Eurosport Tells Story of Ski Jumping Ace Ammann's 'Never Ending Flight' FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tuesday, 25 October 2016 EUROSPORT SECURES EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS FOR INAUGURAL SIX DAY CYCLING SERIES BEGINS WEDNESDAY 26 OCTOBER AT 9:30AM AEDT A new series of world-class track cycling events, the Six Day Series, is coming to Eurosport, the Home of Cycling, for its inaugural 2016/17 season. The Six Day Series will feature some of the world’s best professional riders, including Australian team Cameron Meyer and Callum Scotson, Brits Mark Cavendish and Sir Bradley Wiggins, Kenny de Ketele and Moreno de Pauw from Belgium, along with French duo Morgan Kneisky and Benjamin Thomas in a new innovative format, all set within a unique party like atmosphere with great music and entertainment forming the backdrop to the drama on the track. The first event will take place in London at the Lee Valley VeloPark and will be broadcast in Australia Wednesday 26 October at 9:30am (AEDT). Other events in the series include Amsterdam (December), Berlin (January) and Copenhagen (January), with a final night taking place in Palma, Mallorca in March. Held over six consecutive days, the Six Day Series sees teams of two riders compete in multiple races across a variety of sprint and endurance disciplines in a bid to be crowned champions. The cornerstone of the event is the Madison race where the riders sling each other in and out of the action, creating compelling and highly tactical racing. Alongside the elite men, there is an elite women’s omnium competition set to run across the series with men and women riders battling it out to qualify for a one-off, one night spectacular final in Mallorca in March 2017. The Six Day Series on Eurosport will see pioneering production initiatives to bring fans closer to the action, including on-bike cameras, real-time speed, heart rate and cadence data from riders. For the first time in track cycling, location tracking will be integrated for each rider to help follow the race more closely than ever before.

  • Tour of Britain ‐ 8A
    Biomatematický model 2014: Tour of Britain ‐ 8a. etapa Tour of Britain, probíhající současně se závěrečným týdnem Vuelty končila dělenou etapou – dopolední časovkou na 8,8 km a odpoledním hromadným závodem. Skvěle se v ní dařilo Janu Bártovi (Net App – Endura), který potvrdil svojí časovkářskou extratřídu a dojel 4. a o pár pozic níže skončil jeho týmový kolega Leo Konig . Karel Hník (MTN‐Qhubeka) dokončil lehce za polovinou pole). O kuriozní situaci se postaral Mark Cavendish (Omega Pharma – Quick step), který si z předstartovního soustředění zapomněl vzít na start kolo… Nakonec mu ho přinesli pár vteřin před povelem „Go“. Mark se do toho opřel opravdu pořádně a dojel si pro solidní 15. místo. A jak se na širokých Londýnských ulicích dařilo jezdcům BMM?

Social-emotional development is given only incidental attention. Families must be prepared to take up the slack. Otherwise students’ emotional growth may be impeded, resulting in diminished social skills, motivation, and ability to cope with stress. This book describes how public schools have changed and provides strategies for helping your child to thrive. Liane Brouillette is an associate professor of education at the University of California, Irvine. Drawing on her experience teaching in public schools in the United States and Europe, she explains how budget cuts, along with LIANE BROUI state and federal mandates, have stretched American teachers thin.

  • Topsport Vlaanderen – Mercator Nieuws 2012 Kenny De Ketele Knap 4De in Het Omnium
    1 Topsport Vlaanderen – Mercator Nieuws 2012 Kenny De Ketele knap 4de in het omnium 15 januari 2012 - UCI Track Cycling World Cup #3 - China - Peking Er stonden geen zesdaagses op het programma van Kenny De Ketele en Tim Mertens begin januari. Onze pistiers kwamen in actie op de wereldbeker baanwielrennen in Peking. Kenny De Ketele is er knap vierde geworden in het omnium. Al meteen na dag 1 stond hij op die 4de plaats. Daarmee komt ook een ticket voor de Olympische Spelen in deze discipline heel wat dichterbij. De Australiër Glenn O´Shea won voor de Fransman Bryan Coquard en de Duitser Nikias Arndt. In de ploegenachtervolging eindigden de Belgen - met naast Kenny en Tim nog Ingmar De Poortere en Steve Schets - op de 10de plaats. Een mindere prestatie, gelukkig met weinig gevolgen voor wat betreft onze kansen op een Olympische kwalificatie. In de ploegkoers tenslotte werden Kenny en Tim tweede na de Tsjechen Martin Blaha en Vojtech Hacecky. Trainingsstage en workshops zitten er op 22 januari 2012 - teamnieuws Onze renners hebben de voorbije 2 weken een druk programma afgewerkt. Na een mediatraining vertrokken ze op 10 januari naar het Spaanse Calpe voor de jaarlijkse trainingsstage. Net als vorig jaar verbleven ze er in Hotel Diamante Beach en gisteren, 11 dagen later, zijn ze teruggekeerd. De mediatraining van 9 januari werd gegeven door Steven Piessens en Frank Van Oss. Heel wat aandachtspunten werden besproken en begeleid door oefeningen. In Calpe werd er dan weer stevig gefietst onder begeleiding van de nieuwe trainer Trainer Erwin Borgonjon. Sommige dagen stonden er meer dan 200 kilometers op de teller, met daarbij 3600 hoogtemeters.
