Manchester Velodrome was originally a 100 metre track. Every time Sir Chris Hoy does a standing start the track stretches by a metre. By 2012 it will be a 3km track.

CERN don't need a Large Hadron Collider, they just need to set Sir Chris Hoy and Jamie Staff off in opposie directions in a velodrome. This would result in a new particle being discovered, the "Brailsford Boson".

Sir Chris Hoy recently had the idea to sell his urine as a canned beverage. We know this beverage as Red Bull.

Some people wear Superman pyjamas. Superman wears Sir Chris Hoy pyjamas.

When Sir Chris Hoy pedals, his bike does not move, the earth rotates.

During a powercut across the whole of Manchester in 2003, an engineer connected Sir Chris Hoy's turbo trainer to a turbine at the powerstation. The resulting power from his one hour training session was enough to light up the entire North West for seven weeks.

Faster than a speeding bullet ... more powerful than a locomotive ... able to leap tall buildings in a single bound... yes, these are some of Sir Chris Hoy's warm-up exercises.

There are no steroids in match sprinting. Just cyclists Sir Chris Hoy has breathed on.

Sir Chris Hoy once challenged Lance Armstrong in a "Who has more testicles?" contest. Sir Chris Hoy won by 5.

Scientists have estimated that the energy given off during the Big Bang is roughly equal to 1SCHSS (Sir Chris Hoy Standing Start)

    Chris Hoy is so fast he can lap himself.

    Due to friction, Chris Hoy's bike stretches by 2cm every time he rides.

    Nuclear weapons will now be measured in Hoys 10 megatons = 1 Hoy.

    Standing too close to the track when Hoy goes by can result in your innards being sucked out.

    Chris Hoy's training velodrome has its own weather system.

    Chris Hoy's gravitational pull is 2.3g.

    When is he going to be knighted? I don't think he's Sir yet.

    In future, all high speed trains are going to be towed by Chris Hoy clones.

    No. Chuck Norris is merely the old Chris Hoy.

    When Sir Chris Hoy jumps in a swimming pool, he doesn't get wet, the swimming pool gets Sir Chris Hoy.

    If Sir Chris Hoy and Chuck Norris ever stood within 10 meters of one another, the world would reboot to 2012.

    If you diss Sir Chris Hoy, he will chop you into a quabillion pieces. If you inform him there's no such number as a quabillion, he'll mash you up into a bajillion pieces.

    When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night, he checks under the bed for SCH.

    SCH does not sleep. He waits.

    SCH can slam a revolving door.

    In a fight between Batman and Darth Vader, the winner would be Sir Chris Hoy.

    In a race between The Silver Surfer and The Flash, the winner would be Sir Chris Hoy.
  • Chris Hoy's gravitational pull is 2.3g.

    I think you'll find that 2.3g is the gravitational pull of one of Sir Chris Hoy's thighs - his total gravitational pull is much greater.

    Normally in Mar, but I believe that the convention is that you adopt the title after it has been published.
