Victoria Pendleton

In the inaugural women's Keirin final at the Olympics, Victoria Pendleton continued Great Britain's dominance in cyclying.
She was trailing throughout most of the race, but made a great move with one lap remaining and held off her Chinese opponent in a photo finish.
Pendleton was disqualified from the team sprint competition earlier, so this gold represents a solid redemption in front of the home crowd.
