Vicki has to face Gao in the semis - that should have been the final. Gao is the only person who has a chance of beating her. So it's Gold or Bronze...

It would be a shame if she didn't get through to the final. Could be a career defining moment. Fingers crossed!

NZ versus Oz in the team pursuit now. Who's your money on? Mine's on Oz.

Absolutely awesome performance, think Denmark shelled a man out of the back in desperation not to be caught by Great Britain.

Shame they brought an end to the Trackstand duel between Hoy and Awang

Yeah, they should allow them to stand for several minutes and then get the Olympic mascots to come out and bop them on the head with giant cottonbuds like in Gladiators!!

Is that right?
I thought seeding was on qualifier times and would be quickest v slowest.

Cycling weekly this as the draw:-
SEMI-FINAL DRAW
Victoria Pendleton (Great Britain) v Willy Kanis (Netherlands)
Anna Meares (Australia) v Shuang Guo (China)
