Competing internationally for the first time since last year's Beijing Games, the Australian clocked 33.632 seconds to win the 500m time trial by two tenths of a second from Olympic champion Pendleton.

She then paired with Kaarle McCulloch to win a second gold in the team sprint.

''It's nice to get a good ride as it's been a while since I've raced internationally,'' said Meares, who took silver behind Pendeleton in the sprint at the Beijing Olympics.

''I'm really happy and the more this tournament has moved on the more comfortable I've been getting.

''It's been great but I've done a lot of work to get here. I wanted to start the season well and I've done that for sure.''

The 26-year-old Queenslander joined McCulloch to post the fastest time in qualifying for the team sprint (33.363sec) before defeating Dutch pair Yvonne Hijgenaar and Willy Kanis in the gold medal race.

In the medal round Meares was the only rider to post a sub-19second first lap, clocking 18.754 and giving McCulloch a perfect platform to bring home the win with a final time of 33.653, half a second better than the Dutch (34.014).

Germany defeated Britain for the bronze medal.

In the women's 3km individual pursuit Western Australian Josephine Tomic couldn't match the experience of Britain's Wendy Houvenhagel in the gold medal race.

Victoria's Shane Perkins won his way through to a bronze medal ride in the men's sprint against Jason Kenny, where the British rider proved too strong in two straight heats. Canberra's Dan Ellis lost to eventual gold medallist Sir Chris Hoy in the quarter-finals. AAP
