Yes, that's right, once more time to scour the interweb for some fine photography of some fine sportsmen and women. As ever, clean, safe for work pictures only please, and only of real sportspeople (and diminutive Australian singers if you must! 😉 )
It's a dull, rainy day in London, so I propose a combined theme of sunshine and quality photography.
I'll kick off with a favourite pic of mine, Cancellera railing it round Parliament Square. I do this on my commute home every day, but I'm way faster, obviously...! 😉

Don't start that rob2 ffs!
Well the sunny theme has scuppered my idea of posting Lindsay Vonn's impression of [url= 
]Sharon Stone[/url], so here's her skiing anyway

You've got to admire someone who chooses their running attire pattern to match the race name.

It's a dull, rainy day in London
That will teach you 😀
How long has runner 1391 been hanging there checking her arse??
Fair play to him though 🙂
I'm not agreeing with TJ, but to be honest I am finding this Friday A & A business a bit dull frankly. Much more fun with a bit of controversy attached. Can we re-brand it as A & A with Guilt Trip or similar?
Can I just say DON'T do a google image search for female weightlifter.
It will take years of therapy to get over that.
Camping it up at an all vegan strongman competition.

I'm the skinny one on the front row with the cycling tan. 😳
[i]all vegan strongman competition[/i]
Dunno why I found that funny, but I did 😀
the bloke on the front row right should get some cream for that rash.
They all look like they need a good hotpot...
It's not a rash, it's from stone loading.
Same guy, different competition.
150kg on to 120cm platform.

i thought one of the parts of A&A meant "attractive"? 😆
silly vegans, some meat will soon see them thinking straight 😈
Cycling tan = Attractive. 8)
MTG - Which Army camp is that photo fom, Swinnerton ??
Did the bloke lifting that stone used to have an arse?
Anokdale, [url= http://unit20strongman.blogspot.com/ ]Unit 20[/url], Royal Elizabeth Yard, just outside Edinburgh.
I see the guy in the middle at the back got over his punch up with Indy.

Dunno why I found that funny, but I did
I find it funny that I was about 100kg at that time, yet the other guys make me look skinny. 😕
Anyway, enough about me, how about another pale skinny vegan.

Does the Japanese Beach Ball Champion have her hood pieced? I can just make something out.
Guess who again, sorry...

Is that Japanese beach baller mumbling something?
I think it means she is (was) ranked No.1 in Japan, (points scored, earnings etc)
