But boy did he have to work for it. Christos Volikakis, of Greece, tried to box him in and Teun Mulder (Netherlnads) tried desperately to come around him as the finish line approached. Hoy managed to hold on. Mulder took a deserved silver and Volikakis bronze, with fellow Brit Matthew Crampton sixth.
