I'll call Oli personally.
I've got my fingers crossed for Ali. She's done SO much work over the last few years, all focussed at this. It's a strong field, but she's on god form.

Looks like a special suit - latex-esque. Mmmm. If they could combine latex skin suit and swedish handball, they'd have a sport I'd pay to watch.

The results are already up - but the replay of the men's team sprint is about to be on 1 (after the break).

I forgot to write about it in my Avanti articles, but did you know that Switzerland's Bruno Risi is racing on a Pista badged as a Focus?
Focus have an agreement with Avanti to use their frames...

Risi? Legendary! Hash told me a bit about the testing process for the Pista - I'm very impressed.
That GB ride was awesome - the slow motion of the start shows the MASSIVE gear the number 1 was on - but the way he got on top of it after 15m was amazing.
All 3 were simply HUGE guys too. Hoy's going to get more gold.

GB has gone from having one Olympic cycling medal to almost getting them at will. It's staggering how well they've taken their program to the very top.

How did GB NOT blow that?
Looked like he was WELL off his lead in mans wheel there.
Looking forward to more track, and the BMX on Wednesday.
