Chris Hoy is determined to enjoy the limelight while it lasts, but the triple gold medal winner told Sky Sports News that he will be back to work soon as he hopes to power on to London 2012.

The big Scot was back in Edinburgh as he celebrates being the first British triple gold winner for a century, and he is determined to enjoy his time in the spotlight.

Although Hoy is still getting used to his new-found fame, he remains grounded and knows it will not last forever.

"Its very strange, it'll take time to get used to," Hoy told Sky Sports News.

"But it's not going to be like this for ever, it's just the initial media frenzy when you get back but they will move onto someone else.

"It's nice to have the attention and hopefully make the most of it but I am a cyclist, that's my job and in a few weeks I'll be back in training."

Dominate

Britain's cyclists dominated the velodrome in Beijing and Hoy says that for London in four years' time, they other sports should use their model and others such as sailing and rowing to achieve success elsewhere.

"A reason for the success of the British cycling team is the strength in depth and the youngsters coming from below, every training session is a competition," Hoy added.

"We should maybe look at the rowing, the sailing, the cycling and use them as a model for other sports where we didn't do so well.

"As long as people keep their focus and desire then the sky's the limit."

Hoy will have past 36 by the time London rolls around in 2012, but he believes he can still be at the top of his game to win more medals, this time in front of his own fans.

"I love doing what a do I love being a cyclist I love training and preparing for competition as well as the competition itself.

"As long as I have a place in the team and can fend off these young riders coming through then I still hope to be there."
