Britain was celebrating at the Track World Championships this weekend as cyclists Sir Bradley Wiggins and Mark Cavendish triumphed in the madison and Laura Trott won a seventh career gold in the omnium.

"With less than five months to go until the start of the Olympics, the feelgood factor within British Cycling is back in the nick of time. Five golds, one silver and three bronzes left the host nation top of the medal table and Wiggins and Cavendish on top of the world," reports Tom Cary in the Daily Telegraph.
