I have to be honest, the Olympics has been fantastic. I didnt intend to watch so much of it, but it's on my telly all day, and has been quite addictive in the medal hunt. I watched the Brownlee boys live as well, - they were awesome. Cycling in the velodrome is on now predicted for another 3 golds.???

My sentiments exactly, yet I've been glued to a lot of it. My heart goes out to Victoria Pendleton, what a great gal.

Relegated twice!:(:mad: First time unfairly, which must have had a pyscological impact.

neither time was unfairly the first time in the team sprint the first rider must be all they way over the line before the second rider overtakes them, Jess Varnish wasn't over the line before Vicky Pendleton overtook her. you can't break the takeover rules and not expect a relegation the judges are eagle-eyed in cycling

I was referring to the [alleged] deliberate contact made by Meares. As have a lot of people.
