Disappointed you missed out on tickets to the cycling events at London 2012?

Not quite the next best thing, but think of it as a consolation prize: it's the Team GB official Scalextric Velodrome Cycling Set, from Hornby Hobbies Ltd.

With a pair of miniature cyclists dressed in Team GB racing kit, two handheld controllers, 15 track pieces and a banked Velodrome circuit, you can get practising your circuits right now.

OK, so it's meant for kids - but why let that stop you? Go Olympics mad with your own set. Love it!

The Team GB Velodrome Cycling Set goes on sale from September 1, 2011, RRP £69.99.

Hornby Hobbies is an Official London 2012 product supplier.
