    <p>Awesome effort by the chick sticks, as someone else said, they look like they've grown some steel this time. But the real test will be GB, if they can overcome that mental block, the gold is there for the taking.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Lisa darling, no pressure, but we really need a solid gold boost up that medal table (and not the per capita one).</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The bloke sticks were stars, then four minutes of fucking embarrassment. That was a Barker-esque choke.</p>

    Just watched the replay of the Cavendish crash. He looked at the South Korean rider before cutting him off. I reckon it was a definite strategy to try and take out his rivals, that was a dog act and he should have been DQ'd

    Same.<br><br>
    You could tell he wasn't 'surprised' when he made contact with the Korean, hence he was braced and stayed upright easily. And his rival piles into the Korean.<br><br>
    Not that I know much about cycling.<br><br>
    But looked sus to me.

    <p>First two heats were very slow. Willis should be able to qualify here even if he misses out on the top 6.</p>
