Keisse and Gilmore out of rhythm

World championship medal winners Iljo Keisse and Matthew Gilmore, stars of the Sixdays track racing scene, have started their first event in this European winter season in Amsterdam, but fell behind one lap on overall standings already on the first night. The two Belgians still have to "find their rhythm", as Keisse explained to Belgian Sporza Radio.

"We couldn't train a lot on the track and now we're paying for it," said Keisse. "But it's not an endurance problem, it's the short efforts that break us. We're finished for this event, but by the end of the week, we have to find our rhythm."
