So it is true what they say, in the Olympics every place means something to someone.

Of course :p 

 

Besides personal goals, every country has their rewards for different things and to a different extent.

Not entirely done yet....Batten went through the feeding/technical zone without taking anything like a bottle, which isn't allowed. Dutch team is considering whether or not they'll protest and want to

Just to confirm again that it was not Pidcock's fault.

That's from the section before, which the TV coverage didn't show. When Tom had suddenly caught Victor. I wondered what had happened and now we know.

 

But what it shows me is that Victor was right on the limit - as was Tom! - and was capable of making the slight misjudgment because of it. Which is what happened on 'the pass' - he left the line open not thinking that Tom would go for it. Then when he realised that Tom *was* going for it, he tried to close the gap too late and then had to take avoiding action.

 

Unfortunate for him, but just a racing thing for me.

It was great to see him finish, and with a wheelie for the crowd no less! :thumbup:

      Disrespectful and cruel for junior athletes.  So they will send a token delegation of 30-40 people?

      I'm guessing most of the big teams have been told to watch the numbers.

      Something that Germany desperately needed, because they're getting destroyed by Norway and France. Sweden is also moving ahead with capable athletes like the Oebergs, Samuelsson, Ponsi and new Swedish improvements like Halvarsson, Heijdenberg, plus it's probable that Andersson comes through next year as well.   With the level that Norwegian men and French women have, I don't really see Germany being ready to challenge next year.    Have a feeling it's gonna be Perrot, Giacomel and a handful of Norwegians battling it out next year.    As for the women, I think it looks like a French year, with Jeanmonnot + Michelon and Richard getting more time to get better, it's tough to see who could be consistent enough to challenge. Although, I would love for the Oeberg sisters to have a season where they're both healthy throughout. It's also uncertain what kind of Vittozzi we're getting, if Grotian has enough time to become a challenger and in what kind of form will Preuss come back to, after her first ever season with no health issues.
