Anyone catch the Hockey men's Q/F between Germany and NZ? NZ two up with 4 minutes remaining. The Germans get one back then with less than a minute remaining score 2 more! Less than a minute!!!!..unbelievable!!!
Always thought there was something a bit 'off' about Cavendish. Gets really arsey with the cameras at times, and seems to act strangely during interviews.
He does daft things that can't be explained - like cycling on part of the track he knew you're not supposed to. Now there's this crash. I've played it back in slow motion and I'm sorry but it looks deliberate. Others have accused him of this before as well. Nothing proved though but it's strange. Reported rows behind the scenes with Wiggins too. He just seems like a very weird guy to me and controversy seems to follow him around.
Well done to Trott. Looking good.

Agree with that, never a fan of Cavendish. Think it's his general attitude I don't like, now Wiggo, I thinks he's great.
He won it on Sunday as second couldn't overtake him, but officially his now

Fair play to the girl that was a well deserved bronze. The Yank girls were just too strong.
They were mentioning this on the BBC the other night, Hoy was saying it's very difficult to train and try and peak twice in the same year, Worlds then Olympics. He was saying most of GB's training was to lead up to Rio and not the World's, basically the Olympics were the main goals for team GB.
That's why we're better than the rest.
