IT IS the best sport happening in the UK this week and you will not find a word on it, or a picture, on any tabloid back page.
Indeed, even the qualities will probably give it a miss on their showpiece page, preferring to tuck it away inside behind half-a-dozen pages crammed with reaction and viewpoints on a friendly international football match in which England – I'm told because I switched off after five minutes – did not have a shot on target in 90 minutes of utter sporting dross.
The sport is cycling, the event the world track championships at the National Cycling Centre in Manchester.
