Team GB won't win it now.

Just got in...are we still in this? Would be a massive boost to Team GB if we do this.

Gone to ****

I'm still here. Gonna have to get a later train.

Cavandish seemed to be such a massive favourite. How come he is going to finish so far behind? I don't get why he didn't just stick with that lead group?

Why are the front two having a bit of banter?

Does cycling have sledging?

Irish lad is doing well in the boxing.

One will want to conserve his energy and the other wants him to contribute. Remember, they've got a packing chasing them so they can't fuss around.

Ditto. I don't get it and never will. All this pretend "team" **** when it's an individual sport. Why do they have to overcomplicate it? Just have a race and the fastest wins.

My idea for Cavendish would've been to go faster and keep up with the leaders.

Nearly knocked the kid out. Legs went to jelly.

FLMAO what was that idiot in white doing there? LOL. Home straight with yards to go and the soft ****er was idling and looking round. What the ****.

Ridiculous event

Vinokourov.

How can that be the sprint for the 4th position?
