    Cwooaarr wouldn't mind being that saddle!!

    Seriously though, I think it's a bit of a shame that she feels the need to do glamour photos rather than being appreciated for her achievements on the bike.

    Glamour shots?! Where!? :P

    I agree though, there was a thing on BBC a while ago and they saw fit to doll her up in a casino setting for it. Seemed a bit much but then, you can't blame her for not saying no.

    Ah I see. Good stuff!

    Read that article about yesterdays tour stage aswell. Didn't realise Cavendish had tangled with a spectator. He must be furious but guees it does happen occasionally, especially in a country not used to cycle racing.

    I had to search hard for the link you know, in the cause of research of course!

    Yaaay an 11 pic slide show!! :shock: :D

    Part of me wants to say PHWOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaar and part of me wants to say 'but why is she holding that spanner whilst wearing a nice dress?'

    Have we had a poll on which picture we like best? My vote goes for number 3 but I think she looks even better when she is not glammed up?
    I'd rather walk than use Shimano

    ahem...

    Vicky was at the prologue on saturday, on one of the 2012 displays... she was chatting and posing for pics, i actually walked right past her at one point as i didn't see her.. she also donned fencing gear and beat Jonathan Edwards in a competition.

    she looked good in the fencing gear.... she did need some bood protection, so some was slipped inside her kevlar vest. i did think they could solve the over budget olympics by selling them on ebay afterwards.

    Don't be daft, She's an attractive women why shouldn't she want to have those kind of photo's taken. Just because she's an athlete doesn't mean to say she can't be thought of as attractive. It doesn't take away from her achievments on the track. Let's have more pics she is GORGEOUS!!!!!! :D

    Met her at the UK Sportive. Stunning looks, engaging personality, a brain, and a cyclist. She will make someone a perfect wife!

    But if she has brains, looks and a successful career, why would she want to get married?

    Don't knock her for wanting to show the world how hot she can look. what's the point in doing all that exercise if you can't show it off once in a while. She is human, she is a girl and we girlies love to look hot.

    i've got my trip to Paris is couple of weeks (woohoo!) but there's one thing i miss with all the training... looking good! much as i know i get male attention in my tight lycra, from the neck up i don't really feel i look my best after 2 hours plus of riding... mostly i just look knackered and i said to my sister about 3 weeks ago that i couldn't wait for it to be over coz i was sick of looking like a dog all the time with scruffy hair and no make up. The minute i get back from Paris i'm dressing up and off on a night out to show off my hot legs! ha ha

    It's bad enuf for the likes of us normal girls but poor old Vicky does all her training in front of the world and his dog.

    Now i'm not saying she looks rough, but i bet she feels like that when she knows how good she can look when she gets dressed up so i'm not surprised she jumped at the chance and a photo shoot and showing the world how hot she really is.

    I think Mavic helped get that photo shot in The Times

    Im sure that glam shots in the times will help her attract sponsorship - so good on her
