Yeah, at that moment it was "Ouch, a fall, gold gone", but now it's quite clear that it's more serious than that.. 

 

Abbott has always been good btw, no surprise.

Abbott is known as the best female climber moreover.

 

Sad that not medal for her. :cry:

No, Abbott wasnt one of the favorites. Its funny that you now want to teach me about womens cycling, although you just said a couple of day ago that you dont follow womens cycling and dont know who the favorites are ... :lol:

I have read enough previews from people who watch literally every race and heard actual female cyclists analyse the race, and all of them said Abbott is one of the best, if not THE best, female climbers ;)

On a course like this, that makes you one of the favourites ;)

So ...

1) Why did you say that you have no clue who the favorites will be when i asked you a couple of days ago?

2) Abbott didnt win a medal, so obviously she wasnt so strong after all ... :p

3) I think it was you who said that Ferrand-Prevot could win a medal in road cycling and mountainbike at the olympics (correct me if i wrong), although everyone (including me) said that it wont happen, what does that tell about your expertise? :mumble:

Because I had no reason to do my preparation yet and only after that started reading up on the views and expectations of actual experts ;)
