Power couple of the century. Produce some golds :clap1:

[Novo]

Frome you ****ing Kenyan Flopster

[Nicky91]

Laura Trott, wow she's so talented and so good looking :)

[James]

How's the time-trial going?

[Novo]

Rohan Dennis looking good for Gold, Frome 24 seconds down

[Black Dagger]

Jobber

[Novo]

Denis ****ed now after starting fast, Cancellara takes the lead by 17 seconds

[Novo]

Dumoulin out of the Gold race, only Froome probably the only one who can beat Cancellara now if he has made up time

[Novo]

**** he's 4th

[James]

He's too tired after the Tour.

[Novo]

and that Road Race

[Novo]

Cancellara is leading by about a minute now

[Black Dagger]

****ing Froome.

[Novo]

Cancellara 1st
Dumoulin 2nd
Froome 3rd

[smudgie]

Well done Froomie.:love:

[Black Dagger]

Hope we're ready for Trotty to be the queen of GB 2016 xo

[Novo]

Ready to watch us flop out the medals in the team Sprint

[Black Dagger]

lmao at an Olympic record already

[Novo]

Bet that will be smashed by NZ or France

[Denver]

Hope we're ready for Trotty to be the queen of GB 2016 xo

[Wizard.]

Is the velodrome?

[Novo]

No it's the Aquatic Center

[Shaun]

Not bad not bad

[Shaun]

World record :clap1:

[Denver]

get in there girlies

[Novo]

Trotty could have done another 20 laps

[Shaun]

Just give us the gold already

[Shaun]

That crash looked nasty :/

And the idea of dragging along and picking up a splinter there is making me cringe.

[Shaun]

Says a lot that not quite beating the world record in the semi finals is seen as a bit of a disappointment.

[Shaun]

Come on team sprint!!!!

[Shaun]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAS

[Jack_]

YAAAAAAAaas

[Jack_]

Nervy start

[Novo]

Yesssssssss

not gonna lie didn't expect that at all

[James]

Well done.

[Black Dagger]

Yasss. Didn't think we'd get gold there. Here for another dominating display. 10/10 go poo d medals please x

[James]

GB wasn't predicted to win a medal in this, in that Virtual Medal Table I posted.

[Ross.]

Great job :clap1:

[Headie]

GB wasn't predicted to win a medal in this, in that Virtual Medal Table I posted.

It also predicted Tiffany Porter will win a silver medal so I'd just forget about that table if I were you :laugh:

[Black Dagger]

This cycling is a piece of piss this year considering we have been poor by our standards in recent times.

Could have had a 10/10 in medals if it wasn't for bloody Jess Varnish falling out with everybody :bored:

[Jack_]

0.001 :joker:

[Novo]

GB v Australia in the Team Pursuit Final

[Shaun]

Mess, didn't see the specific cycling thread

[Black Dagger]

Bloody useless knowing this is the only event we don't have any medal chances in :idc:

[Jack_]

Let's do this

[Shaun]

You've got this lads :pipe:

[Shaun]

Erm...

[Shaun]

YAAAAAAAAAAS :worship:

that was way too ****ing nerve-wracking

[Jack_]

Dear god I nearly shat myself when the split kept widening

[Black Dagger]

I thought we lost it at the end when the gap happened. YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Novo]

Aussies must have been blowing out their asses going that fast at the start

[Novo]

Wiggins making a great decision coming back to track cycling after 2012, what a hero

[James]

Huge achievement for Wiggins. Great that him and Cavendish are back at the Olympics. They must be amongst the all-time greats in cycling. I hope Cavendish gets a medal.

[smudgie]

I would love Cav to get a medal, finish off a great year for him.

[Black Dagger]

Congrats on having a world record for about 5 minutes USA xo

[Novo]

They did about 20 laps of the track celebrating it as well

[Shaun]

Kenny through to the semis I think? Idk the heats of the individual sprint are confusing. Skinner should join him too :clap1: Edit: he has. :hee:

[Novo]

Hopefully an all British final

[Braden]

Some great results for Team GB here, but has Bradley Wiggins found his medal yet? :p

[Denver]

come on GB

[Shaun]

YAAAAAAAAAAAS :clap1:

[Denver]

yesssssssssssssssssssss World Record

[Ross.]

Well done ladies :clap1:

[Jack_]

Great stuff

[Jack_]

Camel toes galore

[Black Dagger]

Flawless.

Here is where we don't get our first gold we're involved in :laugh:

[Shaun]

think the man on the electric bike has an unfair advantage here

[Jack_]

D:

you took your time luv

[Shaun]

Was sure she'd only got bronze on the line but yay!

[Novo]

George North has walked off in disgust

[Black Dagger]

Well done Becky. Overcoming all that :clap1:

[Shaun]

George North...well hello

[Novo]

Come on Kenny

[Shaun]

DOPING!!!! HE'S DOPING!!! Ref!!!

[Black Dagger]

Least one of ours can get the job done x

[Novo]

Put this one to bed Skinner

[Shaun]

Phew :worry:

[Novo]

Yesssss

[Shaun]

Yesssss :clap1:

[Novo]

Go on Skinner

[Novo]

Yesssss

[Novo]

Never in doubt

[Denver]

good boys

[Novo]

Please don't DQ him you bastards

[Denver]

4 golds 3 more to come tonight? :fc:

[Shaun]

Great stuff

[smudgie]

Hoping Cav does well tomorrow :fc:

[Shaun]

Becky! <3

Another O.R.

[Shaun]

Britain 1st and 2nd in qualifying again. Another Kenny/Skinner style final incoming?

[Shaun]

Kinda rooting for Skinner tbh but I suppose Jason Kenny deserves as many golds as Sirs Bradley and Chris.

[James]

Cav has finished 6th in the first event of the Omnium.

[Denver]

Well done Jas

[Black Dagger]

Love me some Kenny.

[Novo]

Take that Hoy record JK

[Ross.]

Mark :clap2:

[Novo]

What the **** Cav :joker: where did that come from

[Jack_]

The elimination race is fun

[Shaun]

:facepalm: mark you were bloody safe

[smudgie]

Cav on form in round two of the Omniom.:cheer2:

[Black Dagger]

Cav you tit.

[Novo]

Good start for Trotty in the Omnium

[Shaun]

how are we doing fams

[Black Dagger]

Our expert in all things, NovoBaratheon will give you a greater insight I'm sure. But it's all going well xo.

[Novo]

It will be looking much better if Trotty can finish with a better time then Hammer

[Denver]

she did it

[Novo]

Lovely stuff

[Shaun]

this is going to take a while

[Shaun]

wow ok mark just act like a complete dick then

[Novo]

Ffs he is the most dopey cyclist ever when it comes to the Olympics

[Shaun]

a very dirty gold if he wins this

[Novo]

The road race in 2012 Wiggins was blowing out of his ass trying to pace him and he finished outside the top 3, if he finishes outside the top 3 here as well then he may as well just piss off forever

[Shaun]

Twitter are fuming with him, acting as if he's personally killed that Korean guy. I am joining in the outrage tbh, hope he doesn't sleep tonight

[Black Dagger]

Bottle job ****.

Fancy trying gaining a lap or something mate.

[Jack_]

Get a bloody move on Cav

[Ross.]

It's a bit slow isn't it

[Shaun]

Don't applaud him, we're not winning gold by killing other competitors :idc: evil bastard

#TeamViviani

[Novo]

If he wins the Gold then he is Innocent
if he wins Silver or Bronze he's a Murderous Bastard
If he wins nothing he deserves the death penalty

That is the judgement we are going with

[Ross.]

He'll get 4th

[Jack_]

Delete the bloody news Clare

[Ross.]

Viviani go away

[Shaun]

you bloody leave Viviani alone

he is a victim here

[Ross.]

Another Lucas-supporting-DelPo type situation I see

[Shaun]

except Andy Murray didn't literally throw Del Potro into the stands

[Denver]

come on Cav

[Ross.]

except Andy Murray didn't literally throw Del Potro into the stands

:joker:

[Ross.]

do something Cav!!!

[Denver]

yessssssssssssssss

[Shaun]

20pt penalty please judges

[Ross.]

Cav :clap1:

[Black Dagger]

He didn't even try and get Gold in that. Waste of time.

[Denver]

He didn't even try and get Gold in that. Waste of time.

DelPo teas

[Novo]

Settling for Silver sums that weasel up

[Ross.]

Let him live

[Novo]

The Chinese will be laughing at this as they prepare for their 12 gold medal table tennis finals

[Shaun]

Waiting for the deduction. Where is it.

[Denver]

He is such a lovable guy

[Novo]

^ Cav picking up Viviani from the podium knicking his gold medal and throwing him into the ****ty sewerage filled Rio Ocean

[Black Dagger]

DelPo teas

Except Del Potro beat Djokovic, Nadal and made his final competitive for Andy. ****ing sashay away luv.

[Novo]

Stop it Trotty you perfect human being

[Jack_]

Laura :cheer2:

[Shaun]

Laura :clap1:

*will retract my support if she also decides to put a Korean in a coma*

[Ross.]

Trott :lovedup:

[Black Dagger]

****ing machine.

[Denver]

Cav for SPOTY please

[Shaun]

more comic genius from adam here, how he never does well in ML i don't know

[Black Dagger]

Yes. He totally warrants it more than Mo or Max Whitlock

[Denver]

all Mo does is ****ing jogs i do that every morning Cav has touched a nation with his heartbreaking trek to a Olympic medal

[Ross.]

Clare and Chris will NEVER be Helen, Mark and Becky sorry

[James]

Cav for SPOTY please

He's already won that. :hee:

[Denver]

He's already won that. :hee:

it never stopped the other idiot

[Ross.]

Anyway

Let's have some more appreciation for Trott

[Denver]

I love Heather

[Braden]

That was a really dirty tactic from Mark Cavendish.

[smudgie]

Fantastic result for Cav, gold would have been perfect but silver will do ncely thank you
Great year for him, here for him getting 4 more stages in the tours next year.

[Nicky91]

i'm really rooting for Laura, and she truly slayed last night :D

[Shaun]

Oh Katy :( two all GB finals would've been great.

[Black Dagger]

:(

Nevermind, get the bronze luv. Becky better beat that German slag though for bitching about us.

[Black Dagger]

Jesus Christ.

[Novo]

Trott lapping and still beating Hammer in a sprint, this has got to be the biggest margin of victory Omnium win ever

[Shaun]

if Cav makes the SPOTY shortlist and Laura doesn't I will fume

[Novo]

Yessssss

[Shaun]

Poor Belgian has given up.

[Novo]

4 Golds at 24

[Amy Jade]

Yesssss Laura Trott!

[Jack_]

Laura :love:

[Shaun]

I hope she's top 3 at least in SPOTY :love:

She could be the greatest British Olympian of all time though and that's enough in itself for the future :p

[Amy Jade]

if Cav makes the SPOTY shortlist and Laura doesn't I will fume

Laura deserves to win after such a huge success

[Black Dagger]

****ing goddess :lovedup:

[Brother Leon]

Laura deserves to win after such a huge success

Still has to be Mo.

[Shaun]

Yay Katy :clap1: snatch that bronze

[Shaun]

Go away, kristina.

[Brother Leon]

Get in!

[Denver]

yesssss

[Shaun]

Good stuff Katy :clap1: Think Vogel will be too good for Becky to overcome.

[Shaun]

Nah Vogel got it :( oh well.

[Brother Leon]

****ing hell...that was close.

[Denver]

she messed that one up

[Shaun]

Shedding her bike seat for the weight difference :nono: disqualify her!

[Denver]

she gave her to much space

[Black Dagger]

Rancid German bint can stop her ****ing whining now. ****.

[Novo]

Surely if something comes off your bike when cycling there should be a punishment, this isn't bloody Mario Kart

[Jack_]

What a cow :idc:

[Brother Leon]

Here we go...

[Brother Leon]

Uh oh... Was that Kenny?

[Shaun]

Disqualify him and I'll set your houses on fire :fist:

[Jack_]

oh god no what have you done

[Shaun]

he doesn't fully overlap :hmph:

[Black Dagger]

Kenny :sad:

[Wizard.]

I swear it was the Malaysian who overtook the back wheel first?

[Denver]

It was the Malay guy

[Wizard.]

I blame the guy on the electronic bike he was leaving anyway this is a stupid rule.

[Denver]

phew

[Wizard.]

wow the drama for nothing.

[Shaun]

*puts the diving back on*

[Jack_]

Thank **** for that

Right call probably

[Brother Leon]

Phew. Sweaty bollocks time that was.

[Denver]

[Wizard.]

[Brother Leon]

**** me. This is some epic trolling.

[Black Dagger]

:joker:

[Denver]

[Jack_]

[Wizard.]

[Jack_]

[Novo]

Trotty and Kenny 10 Golds between them, bloody hell

[Denver]

Trotty and Kenny 10 Golds between them, bloody hell

imagine being their child and the talent you would inherit

[Denver]

Kenny has a big ass

[MTVN]

"He's looking at Laura going 'what's for tea'"

Uh oh

[Denver]

Laura is having the banging of her life tonight

[Jack_]

I didn't hear it live but is it bad I'm laughing at the fact Boardman said 'and he's looking at her thinking "what's for tea?"'

:joker:

[Novo]

As if we have topped what we did at the Velodrome in London

[Novo]

Unbloodybeliavable scenes

[Ross.]

I want to be one of Jason and Laura's future children

[Denver]

[James]

The BBC showed at GB cycling VT set to this song.

rVELTxKRoHA

[Shaun]

I forgot about that song! Is that the chap from The View singing?

[James]

Dunno. Felicity Jones is in the video though.

[Amy Jade]

Gutted that German bitch won over Laura, the whingey bastard

[Nicky91]

congratulations Laura Trott :clap1: :clap1:

[LeatherTrumpet]

last night was epic, the cycling has been brilliant

[Shaun]

oh BMXing is on now... I'm guessing we're not really contenders since I've not heard of a British BMXer since Shanaze Reade?

[Black Dagger]

Liam Phillips is world champion. How did he do lol

[Novo]

he was 10th in the time trail but he is through

[Shaun]

Perched for his sixth place :hugesmile:
