GB 7-5 South Africa semi-finals win. Fiji in final to decide gold or silver.

 

[Frutos]

Olympic Record for GB to kick off the Men's Team Sprint in the Velodrome.

I was lucky enough to get tickets to see the Team Sprints in London - what a day, can't believe it was 4 years ago already!

We're still a bit sh1t hot on the old bicycles it seems.

GB 7-5 South Africa semi-finals win. Fiji in final to decide gold or silver.

For once, I rather hope we lose this one, just to give Fiji a first gold (yes, I know it would be a first medal of any colour).

Also be nice to let Forest win tomorrow, give them a neat 2 out of 2.

You got a right result there as velodrome tickets were highly sought after.

We got handball tickets and watched the men's road race and both time trials too (for free, as is the way with road racing ).

Not sure I could handle watching track cycling live myself. Aside from it being the poor relation to the road, for me, I wouldn't be able to handle the heat in an indoor velodrome either.


Women just this minute broke the WR in team sprint

Well done ladies

The velodrome kicks off tomorrow, but sadly, for the first time in 8 years, it'll not the medal haul saviour.

Early days, but probably worth a bounce...

Yep, got very lucky - my day off happened to co-incide with when some Velodrome tickets were released first-come, first-served - I didn't hesitate, obviously.

Always forget how great wall to wall sport is. Night in hotel enthralled by diving, kayaking, rugby 7's and even gymnastics. Brilliant.

Only complain so far was listening to Ian Robertson's radio commentary of the 7's... Think it was a tad too quick for him unless oooh, um and errr were really playing for team GB.

Proper shoddy repair job to the velodrome track there

This. The build-up kind of passed me by, but now I'm completely hooked again. Constant channel-jumping watching sports I wouldn't consider watching normally.............clay pigeon shooting ? Bring it on......[emoji3]

The US girl (Biles) who's just won gold in the gymnastics was sensational.

One chicken, two chickens ...


Remember the benchmark was set at winning 7 out of 10 golds.
