    OK, got a bit of volleyball on. Anyone know why Turkey have one player in a blue shirt when the rest are in red? China have the opposite, all blue with one red.

    I only spotted Turkey's random player at first and thought it was pub football rules and they had borrowed one of the Chinese

    Watching a bit of ladies weightlifting. Apparently a good snatch will get you into the medals.

    does anyone here understand cycling ?

    If so can you please explain to me why Cavendish is blaming the Aussies and other team's tactics for his loss ?

    If there's a breakaway group then surely its up to you to keep up with them - no one else ?!?

    yeah thats why I want an explanation - to me he is coming across as a whinger and blaming other people.

    But maybe there's some truth in it if an expert can clarify

    No Cavendish is pretty spot on. But also it is just the way the race developed.
    I explained it a few pages back on this thread.

    Have a look at pages 3, 4 and 5 of this thread.
    Not exactly going into great detail but you should have a bit more of an idea after reading it.

    Road cycling is an incredibly nuanced sport and takes a long time to figure out.

    As far as I can make out, the faster you ride the better chance you have of winning. Its about peddling as hard as you can for as long as you can. Cavandish failed to do this and came no-where
