    Cheers.

    I'm fairly sure I nicked the sine-wave profile joke from 4 years ago....

    Nice to hear the track squad is all cool. Never thought there was an issue between Cav and Brad, I read it more as "Brad is stressed and doesn't want anyone taking chances"

    Can't wait for this to start, it's where te Olympics always begins for me, even more so this year as the swimming finals are on so damn late, staying up into the small hours is a no no with a bambino that decides she wants to be up at 5am every day!!

    Should bump up the medal table nicely as well.

    Most of the venues seem to be half empty on TV. Are they sold out?

    Tickets still available for tomorrow night in the velodrome. And every other session except Saturday and Sunday.

    And for every evening athletics session except the men's 100m and 200m final.

    Wiggo mania all queued up and ready to be unleashed one can assume.
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    1hr 30 or so between 1st round (which isn't the first round, as that's the 'qualifying' round) and finals for the Mens TP? could scupper the WR chances - need to go hard in the '1st' round to ensure you're in the top 2 for the final race-off, but not go super-deep ((c) Cavendish, M) to the extent that they've nothing left come the final?

    I guess the schedule has been out for months though (?) and the boffins at BC have planned all the training to cope with 2 v hard efforts inside 2 hours.

    Check out the chainring on this.

    Look like GB will be on Campag rear disc - unless there is a special only competition wheel they are going to use.
