JASON Kenny could not complete a hat-trick of medals in the World Championship keirin final.

But the Farnworth star starts a well deserved holiday on Monday reflecting on a job well done at the Apeldoorn Omnisport in Holland.

Kenny finished with individual sprint silver and a team sprint bronze to mask any disappointment at his 10th place finish in the keirin.

“It was a shame to lose the minor keirin final but I cannot complain because generally I had a really good championship,” said the 23-year-old.

“I won my first senior world medal, beat Chris (Hoy) again and pushed (Gregory) Bauge close in the final.

“We made progress in the team sprint so there are plenty of positives to take forward.

“I have got a couple of weeks off now but I’ve not planned anything.

“Usually, I say I will have a break but then I get pretty bored and want to get back into it.

“When you finish a world championships you want to be involved again.”

Kenny admitted three events in four days may have taken its toll. But there are no immediate plans to decrease his workload before London 2012.

Indeed, he is nailed on to ride the team sprint at next year’s Olympics and currently ahead of Hoy in the pecking order for the individual sprint.

Hoy lost his keirin crown to Aussie Shane Perkins and finished with silver while Mancunian Matt Crampton was fourth.

“Those keirin races were really competitive,” said Kenny, who was drawn against Hoy in the first round and with Hoy and Crampton in the semis. “It was unfortunate we all ended up in the same race because it was going to be hard to get all three through to the final.

“Maybe the sprint took a little bit out of me but it’s the same for the other guys.

“You turn up with achy legs but you forget about that when the racing starts.

“We want the best riders in each individual event so I am happy to keep pushing and trying to improve.”
