Olympic track cycling Day 2 - spoiler

[Dayvo]

Why does the bloke on the moped always pull out? If he carried on then surely he could be in with a shout of a medal

C'mon, DG, keep up, will you!

I've been watching a few of these Keirin heats, now, and I reckon that if the bloke in black didn't keep running out of petrol, he'd win!

I thought the moped bloke used to wear a beret which was a lot more fun than a crash helmet.

I think the Olympic success ought to be broadcast on a football forum, see if we can get any converts, after all English football is sh*t, they might as well support something successful. Given Hoy, Cooke, Wiggins, Burke and Edgar's performances they should be paid more than some weasley footballer with an attention-seeking bimbo wife!

Forget the cycling. The 100 metres world record by Usain Bolt is what everyone is talking about. The cycling medals are very soft because so few countries compete are able to fund and featherbed their riders with lottery funding like we can. Where are the African and Jamaican riders?

Nice to have ludwig bring a little ray of sunshine into the thread there.

Managed to catch today's action on the highlights at last - great rides, and an unbelievable winning distance by Hoy in the Keirin
