My next day off involved a triple-header of ticketed events (no, I'm not suffering from a huge dose of Olympic fever. Of course not!) started with the BMX qualifying heats at the specially-built track behind the Velodrome on the Olympic Park.
Here's the British hope Shanaze Reade flying in front of the Basketball Arena.
After the women's preliminary qualifying, the freestyle boys turned up to pull some tricks. Winner ;-)
High bar jumps. But would you be disappointed if I told you this was a camera effect and not a 4-man bike jumping very close behind their mates?
Back to the medal chasing, and Team GB's Liam Phillips on his first run.
Phillips making the mid-course jump.
No-one likes a show-off!
Epic skills. I'm utterly in awe.
