    Couldn't you have added this to one of the other 50 threads on the ORR, rather than start a new one?

    don't get so angry. The suns shining get out on your bike and smile at everyone.

    I'm not angry, sorry if it came across that way. You can see how many ORR threads there are already, it's a pain to keep track of what's been posted where with so many threads on the same topic.

    ok. It was a great race. The atmosphere on Box Hill was as good as a TdF stage and the support for Team GB was huge. What a great day for the sport - despite the result.

    :P

    I see you've put the caption as 'germany on the front'. Is that the Algerian rider just ahead of them?

    Thought I would try and post a few of my own. Had to resize so not sure if this will work and images may be a bit grainy.
    Thanks also to the chap who tried valiantly to teach me how to use my camera properly. Any mistakes are my own etc etc
    Bonking is fun . . . but not on the bike.

    Great pictures. Ridiculously many spectators. I think we were a few foreigners who got surprised by that. The show up at the womens was amazing as well.
