What about her eyes?

I know it’s been said before, but Jo Rowsell Shands eyes..

Just said the same thing to Mrs THM. Beautiful.

Fingers crossed for Cav.

I think Mrs Rowsell-Shand is a very attractive lady! She rides around my local routes but I’ve never seen her, fortunately for both of us..

6th for Cav in the Scratch.
Great ride from Kluge and Hansen to get a lap on the bunch.

[super tenuous claim to fame] I’ve got the same time as her on a local strava segment [/super tenuous claim to fame]

Nice of the other girls to turn up.

Now Virginie Cueef. Looks like she’s blowing out of her …. no, I won’t.

Anna Meares looks a lot slower than she used to be! Tired after the Keirin or just too old for it now?

[claim to fame]I got a selfie with Anna Meares at London when she won Gold[/claim to fame]*

*to be fair she was so happy she’d have stood next to pretty much anything, even me… 😳

Good ride by the Russian fella for bronze.

Now let’s hope Skinner can give Kenny a race

Sudden death for Calum – based on the first ride I fancy 2-0 to Kenny

edit: bosh, game over

They need to set up a feed from the rear facing camera on their visors to save them having to look round so much.

Both of those combined – finding it harder to recover because she’s older I reckon (clearly Becky recovered OK).

The IP has to be the most boring part of the Omnium…
Still, Cav up in Heat 7.

I think the Omnium should be a Team format. Two riders. Scratch race (position taken on placing of both riders), a Madison, a Team Elimination (if one rider gets eliminated, both are out), a 2-up Team Pursuit and a Team Sprint. That’d be far more interesting.

BBC 1 abandoned the velodrome, but I found Cav on the red button. Great ride.

Incredible ride from Cab, that time training with the pursuit squad has paid dividends. That time would have won the world individual pursuit title last year!

Awesome ride by Cav. Only 6 seconds slower than the Pursuit WR.

Is this running late? It seems there will be little time before the elimination. You wouldn’t want to be late in the pecking order

Not Hoy “his weakest event would be the pursuit” – which is surprising as he’s got everything else spot on. Unless of course he’s suggesting that the scratch race was a blip and Cav will win the other 4.

Super time by Hansen, new OR, but Cav is now back in the mix after two events. Game on!

The elimination race is always the exciting event but so much happened in that race. Hansen dropped a right bollock, felt Cav had the race sewn up but for that panicky move up the inside.
Top racing

Shame that one by Cav – if he hadn’t of gone on the inside he was out anyway. Not bad though.

Don’t you just love a Cav interview – I’m not even sure he was supposed to be being interviewed there.

Yes, that made me chuckle.
Laid back enough to just be chatting along with old friends.

Glad you mentioned the Cav interview – that wasn’t on the cycling iPlayer channel, so I went on to BBC1 to watch it. Classic Cav.
