Beyond The Velodrome

Gold medal cyclist Victoria Pendleton has revealled that she would like to take part in the upcoming series of Strictly Come Dancing.

She told the Daily Express: “If they asked me I’d definitely consider it. I can’t dance and I’ve always wanted to be able to, so I’d really enjoy that. Plus, I’ve been in sweaty Lycra for the last I don’t know how many years, so being in a sparkly frock and high heels really appeals to me. Instead of wearing a helmet it will be lovely to have my hair smooth and sleek. I’m really into my beauty products, it’s been my one indulgence.”

Nobody tell Vicky that ballroom and Latin dancing involve a lot of sweaty lycra too...
