Agree with everything the sensible people are saying, the only gold i feel we have dropped so far is the women's four this morning, but that got replaced with the trap shooting. The thing that will make the difference between being a successful games (16/17 golds) and really succesful (20+) will be the events that are just a lottery. Kayak Cross/ BMX Racing/Cycling Road races/Madison's & Omnium type things. 

 

Are we really looking at any golds in the road race?

Sakakibara looks equally as strong too though as expected. In other news Ben Proud looking scary in the 50 Free.

i can't be the only one that allways hears Capybara?

I mean compared to the others you mentioned our chances are much lower.

I'd argue its futile for any country to expect a gold in the road races.

Particularly the Men’s. The women’s is normally somewhat more predictable (Tokyo excluding).

Kye Whyte successfully through to the semi finals in the BMX racing.

And so that’s it for Andy Murray. What a career.
