funny how if one ignores helmets, clothing and such how little riding a bike on the track has changed. More track stands then it seems.

I was massively disappointed that it didn't capture the crash in the '75
10 mile. As far as I can tell all of the '75 10 mile footage is from
after the crash that took down Leusenkamp, Shoquist, Spees, and one
other wanker. IIRC Shoquist went from the red straight down onto the
apron head-first, of course wearing a leather "hairnet" helmet.

I actually enjoyed the '76 Alpenrose footage more, but I'm biased:

Track stands became less common after seeding started being done by 200m times.

What impressed me was how much better the velodrome looks now days. It is really being well taken care of.
