Might be enough for a medal, I'd expect it to be beaten though.

I knew the difference was there, but not that it was that big.

yeah comparing the best TT rider there to some mediocre female ones is going to give you a clear difference

Pretty sure he's really good and has been up there before, can't remember if he medalled or not. I remember thinking how crazy this was from one or two olympics ago. If I recall he's French but has Togo ancestory or something and chose to represent them, not 100% sure though.

Yeah, I saw it now. Armstrong had like 47km/h average. Well done!

A bit disappointed in Vos, hopefully she'll do better on the track now.

Badminton A further update. The eight women players have been disqualified by their federation from the competition, but have NOT been expelled from the London Games, the International Olympic Committeee said. Presumably, that means they could still take part in the individual event.

confusing xD

I remember that guy, he got a bronze in Beijing, first ever medal for Togo, I believe. He was so happy he snapped his oar in two.
